I am an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ.  I graduated with a master of divinity from North Park Theological Seminary in Chicago in 2000 and have served churches in Illinois and Connecticut.  I have officiated dozens and dozens of weddings and I find that each one is so unique.  I have joined couples in marriage outside on a farm, at the beach, under a tree, in an old, historic building, in big, beautiful sanctuaries, and even in a living room.  Each couple has their story to share and I have always committed to telling the story of their love during each and every ceremony I have been a part of.  One of the greatest joys of my work is celebrating the marriage of two souls.  I live in West Hartford, Connecticut with my husband and three sons.   I am passionate about social justice and advocating for fair housing.  In my free time, I spend lots of time with my family, create delicious cocktails, cook good food, bake as much as possible, read, write, and enjoy life with our two pugs.
