Intro: Bob and I moved to Ithaca in 1994 to begin a campus ministry at Cornell and begin our family. We had met at a campus fellowship at the state college in Fredonia, where he went for business and I pursued a music degree. I grew up in Long Island, Suffolk County, where most of my family is still located. We have one daughter in middle school and two daughters in high school, and are expecting another baby in March 2011. We recently moved to Trumansburg and love it here.
I currently serve as the worship arts pastor. I am responsible for overseeing the Sunday morning worship teams, children’s worship, and youth worship, and working to facilitate worship in the church.
