What is your role at Covenant and how long have you worked here? I am the IT Manager and part-time Fine Arts Faculty, teaching instrumental music lessons. This is my tenth year at CCA.
What has been your biggest learning experience here so far? My biggest learning experience was understanding how our IT infrastructure was designed, while adding new infrastructure to accommodate current growth and lay a solid foundation to accommodate future growth. As part of this process, we completely reorganized, reconfigured and mapped our server room. It was a great learning experience.
What’s your favorite thing about working at Covenant? I love that we genuinely celebrate holidays, specifically decorating for and celebrating the true meaning of Christmas. I also love that faith in God and education go hand in hand here, educating the whole child. (Prov. 9:10)

Who on the team inspires you the most, and why? Lisa Coleman. Lisa is multi-talented, able to manage and juggle many responsibilities while paying attention to and remembering many, many little details. At the same time, she is always available to talk, problem solve and troubleshoot.
What’s a fun fact about you that most people don’t know? I learned to fly a plane before I learned to drive a car.
What’s your favorite book, movie, or hobby? Book: Forward by David Jeremiah; Movie(s): Star Wars & National Treasure; Hobbies: Model Making and flying in a flight simulator
How do you find balance between your faith, family, and work commitments? I like to get up early to read the Bible, pray, and have morning devotions. My day always seems to be more focused, productive, and satisfying when I do.
