I have served as the administrator of California Christian Academy, PSP, since 1998. My homeschooling journey began in 1987 with my oldest daughter, during what I lovingly call the “homeschool pioneer days,” when resources were scarce and required real determination to find.

​

Homeschooling today is far more accessible than it was in those early years. Curriculum companies now offer abundant resources, whereas we once had to search tirelessly and even persuade publishers to sell to us. In the 1990s, our local homeschooling community flourished, offering outside classes in art, biology, advanced math, and even a 150‑student homeschool choir. I eventually transitioned from my first PSP and began running my own school in the late ’90s with two other families.

​

My faith has shaped every part of my life since becoming a Christian in 1974. God’s unconditional grace transformed my understanding of salvation—His gift is complete, and nothing we do can add to Christ’s finished work on the cross.

​

I am also an author. My first book, Grace in the Shadows, is part of the Journey of Grace series. I would love for you to read an excerpt or visit my author page for more information. I am currently writing the second book, Grace in the Darkness, which I paused for three years during the cancer battle. This book is dedicated to my precious granddaughter, Pearl, My sweet Pearly‑Girl will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Please feel free to reach out by email if you need help on your homeschooling journey. I answer emails as time allows and am always glad to support families whenever I can.
