Jenny grew up in Southern California and was blessed to attend Biola University. Upon graduating in 2002 with a Bachelor of Arts in English, Jenny taught 9th grade English at a California public school. Shortly after she was married to her husband, Matt, and, upon starting a family, enjoyed being a stay-at-home-mom for a time. Matt and Jenny have been married for 16 years and have two children who both attend Valley Christian Schools: Kyla ’22 and Chase ’24.

Prior to coming to VCS, Jenny taught 6th grade at HOPE Christian Academy for five years. Before that she worked part-time as an elementary coordinator for a church and as a substitute for Mesa Public Schools.

Jenny is an avid runner who competed in cross country and track throughout high school and college. She currently coaches the High School Cross Country team.

Jenny’s passions are teaching the Bible in ways where it comes to life for children, supporting her husband in his role as a lead Pastor at Northpointe Church, teaching literature and writing, and anything else that involves people (especially students!) falling deeper in love with Jesus!
