Through her writing or personal encounter, when you get to know her, you will declare that she is as insightful as she is delightful. She has a heart to help that permeates all that she does. You can trust her wisdom for she is always making a significant difference in the faith of those with whom she engages. Her confident attitude will enable you to courageously walk through life’s challenges. Her strength as a woman has made me stronger as a man.
