Amy started serving on staff at CCTO in 2003. Her responsibilities cover the 3-year-olds through Kindergarteners. Amy's favorite parts of working in Children's Ministry are hearing children pray and seeing them bring in money they have saved to give to others.

Prior to CCTO, Amy worked for 10 years in publishing, developing books for children. The Lord has been so faithful in showing her opportunities where she can use her passions--writing and children and Jesus--to glorify His Kingdom.

In this hyper-busy society of Southern California, Amy tries never to be too busy to do some of her favorite activities: read something from the Bible, run or kickbox, dig for rolie-polies with her son Tate, ride scooters with her other son Drew, try futilely to keep things green in her yard, try (also futilely) to keep dirt and dust out of the house, bake cookies, and occasionally catch up on episodes of "Lost" or "24" with husband Michael.
