Station Director

I've worked for the station in different capacities since 1999. I love anything to do with the outdoors, music and it's all better when my family is involved. I'm married to my amazing wife, Heather and we have two awesome kids, Ashlyn and Brayden. We also have a furry friend named Bingo.
I also host the morning show with Ellyn Davey on our sister stations, Hope FM if you want to check it our sometime.

Donor Care

When I was young, I can remember hearing this well deserved phrase from my mother more than once, "Someday God may use that mouth for good, but right now you need to shut it!" The amazing thing is, my mom was right! After studying Speech in college, I graduated not knowing for sure where that degree would take me but God had already prepared the path to use my "mouth" for something good. He did it and I give Him the glory! I feel so blessed to have been a part of this radio ministry from almost the very beginning.
I also co-host the morning show with Brian Smith on our sister stations, Hope FM. We are on from 6-10 am if you want to give us a listen.
My life outside of the radio station is busy enough as a wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother and worship leader with my local church. I enjoy laughing and having a good chat with just about anybody, biking with friends, and a good cup of coffee...everyday!

Program Director

Sometimes, getting to know someone new can be a really scary and uncomfortable experience… Unless you're an extrovert like me and love every part of it!
Even though I absolutely love getting to meet new people, my favorite thing is being able to go deeper and learn more about what truly lights them up!
BUT… The hardest part is finding the right things to ask them. Questions to really pull an amazing response out of them! So, with that in mind as you and I get to know each other a little more, here are my answers to the surface level questions…

Who is your hero?
Bob Goff. If you don’t follow him… You should!

What is your biggest fear?
SPIDERS.

What are your hobbies?
Reading, working out, and cooking!

Favorite show?
The Office… (you either love it or you hate it)

Marketing and Social Media

I joined the HopeFM squad in 2023 and I love being a part of such a great team. I’ve had a lifelong passion for spreading hope in Christ and for more than a decade, I've worked to bring creative value to all kinds of ministry work, from churches, camps, and local non-profits. My wife and I have two amazing little daughters who keep us crazy busy but our best blessings.
When not at work, you can find me making memories with the fam, reading some A.W. Tozer, or staying up way too late watching true crime documentaries. Here's a quirky tidbit: I can’t give blood without taking an unplanned nap/passing out. I just love working with an amazing crew at HopeFM and daily getting the greatest message in the world out there!

Finance & Business Director

Being a part of the HOPE FM Team has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. I love my job, my co-workers, serving people and watching how God is changing lives everyday through HOPE FM.

When I'm not at work, I'm usually off on a new adventure. I've been to all 50 states and a current count of 46 different countries. I have way too many pictures on my phone but I love capturing moments in time and the memories they hold. During the last year, I started "chasing" the Aurora and every time, even when it's just a glimpse, I'm reminded that God's glory is right in front of us in His creation.

Promotions and Volunteer Coordinator

I went to college to study communication and psychology in an effort to understand people better. As my faith has grown, my desire to communicate well and listen well has also grown. Naturally, working at this radio station has been just the right fit for those passions. I love getting to connect with listeners and share what God's doing in and through me, while also getting to use so many different avenues of communication daily.
In my free time, you can probably find me involved in any ministry I can be a part of. I love all kinds of outreach and am always up for sharing the Gospel with someone I meet on the sidewalk. I also spend a lot of time with my family and traveling to visit friends I've made all over the US.
I love working at a place where the things I'm passionate about also get to be part of my daily job.

Production Assistant

I have been with HopeFM for about 2 years now! I started out interning here at HopeFM during my senior year of high school. After graduation, I officially joined the staff as the Production Assistant! I beautiful wife, Lauren in October and I recently my 1 year program at Specs Howard School of Media Arts!
Even though I am more of a behind the scenes person, I love the idea of sharing the Gospel with people. Whether it’s through the music, the on air hosts or even something in between the songs, I truly love my job and love being able to see how God uses this ministry to work through the station to reach people for his kingdom!

Community Engagement and Events Coordinator

I enjoy getting involved with people and businesses through my work here at the station and I love getting to spend middays with our listeners over on our sister station's on HopeFM. I'm on the air from 10 am-2 pm if you want to give a listen. I didn't listen to Christian Radio growing up so I now see the value in it for my family and our community. I love how God speaks through the music.
I have been married to my husband Paul for 25 years. We have three kids, Alex, Sebastian and Atticus. I was born and raised in Michigan but no Go Blue for this girl. It's all Green and White thanks to my dad who graduated from Michigan State University. I love that in the 10 years I have been with Hope FM, I have seen God move and work and encourage people every day.

Administrative Assistant and Donor Care

I'm the newest team member at Hope Fm but have been a listener and supporter for many, many years! Our family loves this station!
I was born right here in Port Huron, and lived in the city until I was five. Some of my favorite memories include riding the bus downtown with my great grandma Rosie. During the years she lived with us, she was the first person I remember ever teaching me about Jesus. She would walk us to the little white church on the corner of our block. Working for Hope FM definitely feels like a full circle moment as those memories came back, being downtown, my great grandmother and the early seeds of my faith!
My husband and I got married literally days after graduating from high school and have been married for 21 years. We have five children but added one more when our oldest daughter got married last year!
While being a mom has been my primary job, I worked as an assistant manager and photographer at a local photo studio, did some college after my 3rd baby, I started a home bakery making specialty cakes for about 10 years and I served as the coordinator of our churches MOPS group. Currently, I serve in my church on the worship team, kids church and I am a Youth for Christ coach at Port Huron Northern High School.
Just as I was feeling like it might be time to re-enter the working world, I heard about a possible opportunity at Hope FM....God's timing is perfect! I love that I have the opportunity to serve the community in this really awesome ministry of Christian radio! Can’t wait to see what The Lord will do!
