I love getting to call Ridgedale my home. I moved to Chattanooga from Memphis in 2019 to start my college career at UTC, and almost immediately found friends that turned into family at Ridgedale. Throughout college, I spent my Sundays and Wednesdays serving in the Kids, Students, and College ministries and leading worship with the Encounter band. Each of these areas have served me more than I have served them, and I am incredibly blessed to be able to do what I do in each one of them.

After graduating college in 2023 with an art degree and a passion for serving my community with my skills, I found my place as Communications Director at Ridgedale where I currently do exactly what I dreamed and prayed for. I’m able to be creative and serve my church family, while communicating the Gospel through everyday interactions.
