What makes Ouachita different:
The atmosphere here is truly amazing! Ouachita offers not only outstanding academics but also opportunities to grow socially and spiritually. The community here is absolutely contagious. The students, faculty and staff genuinely care and support one another creating an environment that supports growth.

Hobbies/Interests: I love spending time with my friends and family! I also enjoy photography, cooking/baking, traveling, days at the lake, camping, hiking, or anything that involves being outdoors. I love kids, and I am blessed to teach 1st-3rd graders at my local church. My newest hobby includes browsing Pinterest for craft ideas and good recipes.

Family: My husband, Timothy, is also a graduate of Ouachita and is a Hall Director here at OBU. We live on campus in one of the new men’s residence halls, which supplies us with a constant reminder of the great community created at OBU! My parents live in Benton, AR with my siblings: Michael (2012 OBU grad), Kristin (OBU junior), Mark, Jonathan, Jenny, Qara, and Graham…that’s right…there’s 8 of us!
