Administrative Assistant

Memory of school: Mrs. Merrifield, the school secretary at Southfield Junior Academy was pleasant and fun. I enjoyed playing the part of Brigitta in the school's presentation of "The Sound of Music" and many fun memories of field trips taken in Larry Blackmer's Zoology class at Grand Ledge Academy.

What I enjoy about working at RMES: Interacting with the students and getting to know the parents. Working with the awesome RMES faculty and staff.

Hobbies: Music, family, friends, traveling.

Education: B.S. in Medical Office Administration, Andrews University

The early years of education shape more than just school readiness—they shape identity, confidence, and a lifelong approach to learning. At Ruth Murdoch Elementary School, we recognize that what happens in these formative years lays the groundwork for how a child thinks, relates, and thrives. Here, education is more than academics. It’s the cultivation of curiosity, the strengthening of resilience, and the daily experience of being seen and supported. In classrooms filled with purpose and encouragement, students begin to understand not just what they can achieve—but who they are in Christ.
