My Books
Forthcoming Memoir
Between Dust and Sky
A Woman’s Search for Love, Meaning, and Healing in a Conflict Zone
My first book is a memoir of the six years I spent running a nonprofit in a conflict zone in Uganda. I went there to help others, and somewhere along the way I had to face my own burnout and learn what it meant to heal. It’s a story about faith, the complicated work of helping without hurting, and learning to care for yourself while caring for others.

Who This Book Is For
If you’ve ever tried to love the world well and found yourself exhausted, this book is for you. I wrote it for missionaries, global workers, and anyone who’s poured so much into helping others that they’ve lost sight of what they need. I hope my story helps you feel less alone in burnout and gives you room to ask what healing and a more sustainable way of caring could look like for you.
