I was born in Waterloo, Iowa, April 10, 1976. My
family moved to Kansas City in 1986 to follow my Father's employment. I graduated from high school in 1994.  Since then, I have been employed by Montgomery Ward, New Mark Care Center, Citicorp Credit Services and more recently Aquila Merchant Services.  For obvious reasons I was laid off in May.  At the present I am self employed and work out of my home with Herbalife International.  I absolutely love what I am doing and have HUGE hopes of being successful.  This opportunity is literally changing my life.  My weight-loss results are AWESOME. So far I have lost 17 inches and counting!!!

Since 1993 I've had four opportunities to travel with The Continenental Singers.  I've had such  wonderful experiences I am sure to travel with them many more times. I have been to Canada, Mexico, France and Greece to visit over layovers but, performed in Holland, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Australia, Fiji Islands, Israel, and Romania. The Continental Singers are a contemporary Christian vocal and instrumental organization dedicated to promoting the Gospel of Jesus Christ through music and drama.  We travel coast to coast throughout the United States and throughout the entire World.  I originally toured with them for 10 long weeks, it was such a great learning  and growing time. Since becoming an adult, I can no longer afford to go on the long tours, so I have joined their "Encore" group which consists of adults traveling on 3 week tours.

    At this point in time, I am dating a wonderful man named Jim.  I am pretty sure he is a keeper but, we'll just have to wait and see!! We have a wonderful relationship and enjoy much of the outdoors together.  We met while vacationing in Waynoka, OK.. home of the sand dunes!!  I have a  four-wheeler and he has a dune buggy.  Through the building of Jim's dune buggy he met my good friends Jeff and Melissa.  Jeff builds them "on the side" of his full-time job. He invited Jim to go with us.  Needless to say, we're attached.  We love to go fishing, camping and this fall I am going to try my hand at hunting... I'm not too sure about it though.

I attend Northland Baptist Church in Kansas City.  My singing schedule has slowed down a little bit,  however I am still available for special music or mini concerts.

    A rose by any other name is....a flower? I don't know, but when there isn't any snow on the ground, I like to admire God's beauty in the earth and you can often find me in a flower garden or park. I enjoy walking around the lakes and even occasional fishing and boating. Yes, I like to fish! No, I do not have a boat so I can't include a photo of it, sorry guys!  But I do like 4 wheeling and have my very own Quad.  Oh yeah I've got pictures, but you'll just have to wait to see them

    As I mentioned earlier, I very much enjoy music, especially singing. Not only do I perform in churches and other functions, such as weddings, I also perform with my father and younger brother. They are involved with the old style country, gospel, and bluegrass. You can visit my dad's web page and find out all the details.
