Tell us a bit about yourself--a brief bio

Having taught classically for 6 years now, I also serve as adjunct professor in the philosophy dept. at Trinity Christian College. Previously I taught Latin, Logic, and Upper School Humanities (mainly history/philosophy/politics). I also volunteered in youth ministry, most notably YoungLife, for several years. I've been a Chicagoland girl my whole life. Now I live with my husband and son on the suburban outskirts, spending much time on the riverbank, searching for frogs and skipping rocks :)
