    Engagement and Worship

    You are God's beloved!! Yet, these days it can be difficult to find a church home where you feel safe, seen, and valued. One of my greatest joys in life is joining the Renew leadership team in fostering a space that can offer that to you. I began attending Renew in 2020 and immediately saw this community to be one of great authenticity. I am honored to be walking alongside this body of believers as we continue to grow in the Lord together. My background includes a degree in communications and religious studies from Texas Christian University, leading to resource development work in the non-profit sector. I absolutely love to study the Word of God and lean on the Spirit to move in bold, beautiful, mysterious ways. On my bookshelf you'll find Jemar Tisby, Beth Allison Barr, Wilda Gafney, and Esau McCaulley, to name a few. I love international travel, live music at small venues, and working in my veggie garden. If I'm not home playing board games with my husband and our 5 amazing kids, you might find me out with friends drinking fancy cocktails or walking the Everett waterfront.
