I’m from Walters, Oklahoma, and my office is in the Walters First United Methodist Church. I became a United Methodist almost eight years ago, got involved with what I could, and have never looked back! I am a Certified Lay Servant and have done pulpit fill around the district for several years; I lead our children and youth ministries here at Walters First UMC; and I simply try to stay hooked up with ministry however I can (unless it involves cooking – definitely not my skill set!).
I really fell in love with the connectionalism of the UMC, and one day the DA job came open in Lawton and here I am. Fun fact: I have been here two and a half years and had three District Superintendents!
My husband, Dillon, and I have two children, Karter Dillon, nine, and Henley, one and a half. Most of our time is consumed with chasing after them, so life is chaos. We spend a lot of time with friends and family, as we have three nieces & five nephews right here in the area. I like to read and fish; and I absolutely love basketball.
