Biography:
I'm a Virtual Assistant who provides remote admin and digital support to businesses, combining creative and technical skills to bring clarity, organization, and excellence to every task. From managing digital content and social media to streamlining systems and supporting events, I enjoy helping others work more efficiently and effectively. While I serve a variety of clients, I have a strong desire to use my gifts to support churches and their ministries. I come from a family of called workers—my parents are retired from the ministry and my siblings currently serve in Colorado and Nevada—so I understand the unique needs of churches. My heart is to serve faithfully behind the scenes allowing pastors to focus more on the people and communities they serve and their gospel-centered work.

I have three years of experience assisting churches with digital media. I'm currently serving my home congregation — Amazing Grace in Amarillo, TX — as well as others in our district.

Biography:
I currently live in Saginaw, Michigan, where I accepted a call to teach 7th grade at St. Paul’s, a local WELS grade school. It was there that I met my husband, Sam. We’ve now been married for nearly four years and have a son named Theodore.
During my five years at St. Paul’s, I also served as the school’s Technology Director. In that role, I managed social media, took photos, designed newsletters and updates, and stayed current with the latest technology trends.
In 2024, I stepped away from teaching to become a full-time stay-at-home mom—my favorite job yet! I love serving in this role and look forward to sharing the other gifts God has given me by partnering with you!

Biography:
With a background in Human Resources, I’m excited to apply my skills in a new direction. I enjoy building connections and strong working relationships, whether in-person or with remote teams, to help reach shared goals. I’m currently growing my skills in digital marketing and have hands-on experience creating Instagram content for a Lutheran podcast, focusing on audience connection, engagement and brand consistency. Offline, I’ve written weekly employee newsletters, internal communications and event promotional materials, while engaging primarily online with job applicants and remote colleagues. Outside of work, I’ve been a member of large congregations with schools, an exploratory mission start and a congregation without a school. My very favorite thing is time with family. I’m also a big fan of libraries, podcasts and online tutorials.
