Personal Life
I feel blessed to work at Dutton Christian School because of the wonderful students and staff. My husband, Jon, and I have three children, Anna, Ethan, and Katherine, and we have a golden retriever named Jack. We’ve been members at Brookside CRC for more than ten years. I enjoy reading, running, traveling, and gardening.
