About Me

Growing up in different countries and traveling extensively as an adult, I’ve experienced a mosaic of cultures and contexts and cultivated a deep appreciation for diversity. As a missionary kid and pastor’s kid, I became familiar with the beauty and ugly of the Church—and from an early age, my passion has been to exhort believers to embrace their fullness in Christ.

Through both writing and editing, I remind myself, respond to God, and reconcile people by building bridges of understanding. Above all, my goal is to reveal the character of Jesus and his cruciform kingdom, which alone has the subversive power to transform his beloved world.

I have served in some form of ministry for over ten years across denominations, demographics, and geographies. Most recently, I worked as Theology Editor for Christianity Today, platforming the work of theologians and biblical scholars to serve church leaders and laity alike.

My husband Sam and I live near the refugee resettlement city of Clarkston (outside Atlanta, Georgia) and enjoy its diverse community. We love exploring new international food spots, traversing the outdoors with our two giant hairy dogs and our two young daughters.

I hold a Master of Letters in Analytic & Exegetical Theology from the Logos Institute of St. Mary’s College at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. The research topic and title of my dissertation was “Christification as Imitative Participation: Incarnation, Kierkegaard, & the Christ Hymn.”

I’m currently working on a book project with InterVarsity Press about imitating Jesus in a world that so often distorts his image (to be released Spring 2027). So if you are interested in theological anthropology, cultural conciliation, or religion reporting, subscribe to join my clan!
