  • Where did you grow up?

My growing-up years were a little scattered. Due to my father’s career, I lived in Arkansas, Texas, Missouri and Nebraska as a child. Nebraska was where my family lived the longest and where I graduated from high school.

  • What is your favorite verse, book or story in the Bible? Why?

Isaiah 41:10.

This is my favorite verse because, quite honestly, I frequently need a reminder that my trust is in God rather than myself.

  • What is your favorite movie? Why?

“Steel Magnolias.”

It has a great story, southern hospitality and an unbeatable cast.

  • Who are three people you admire?

Minnie Porter, my Granny, who is a minister without the title; Dolly Parton and Barbara Bush.

  • What is one little-known fact about yourself?

I began college with the intent of teaching middle-school home economics.
