About Me

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

Through writing and editing, I try to remind myself, respond to God, and reconcile people by building bridges of understanding. Above all, my work is about drawing near to Jesus — close enough to see him clearly and be changed by him — and helping other readers do the same.

I’ve served in some form of ministry and editorial work for more than a decade, across denominations, demographics, and geographies. I currently serve as Managing Editor of Restoration Resources at The Roys Report’s new website, RestoretheChurch.com, and as Story Development Editor at Good Faith on The After Party (Part Two), a forthcoming documentary series on Christian engagement in civic and public life. Previously, I was Theology Editor for Christianity Today.

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. My dissertation — “Christification as Imitative Participation: Incarnation, Kierkegaard, and the Christ Hymn” — laid the groundwork for the book I’m now finishing.

My first book, Unveiled Faces: Reflecting Jesus in a World that Distorts His Image, releases Spring 2027 from InterVarsity Press. In it, I explore what it means to be human like God — to reflect the character of Jesus in a Christ-haunted age.

My husband Sam and I live near the refugee resettlement city of Clarkston, just outside Atlanta. We love meeting new people, eating good food, escaping to our Airbnb in the North Georgia mountains, and keeping our two young daughters out of mischief.

I’m currently working on starting a Substack entitled Epifany — thoughts on beholding and becoming like Jesus and eventually a podcast. So, if you’re drawn to religion/culture reporting and spiritual/theological formation, subscribe on my contact page to follow my journey!
