I grew up in South Minneapolis, went to Southwest highschool - (not telling when I graduated)! I traveled west to South Dakota and graduated from Augustana College with a degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. After College, I came back to the Twin Cities and worked for a number of years for Homeward Bound, a home for multiply handicapped children and then as a Regional Director for ClubKid. Before beginning Jacob's Well, I was the Director of Early Childhood Ministry at Bethlehem Lutheran developing minstry for kids 2 - Kindergarten and their families.
