My Blog

Welcome to Mess & Majesty! Here I write my messy musings for God's Majesty. On life's most tumultuous days, God remains faithful and good. He chooses to meet me in the middle of my mess, bringing order to my chaos. He loves to reveal the wonders of His Majesty. This is my space to share what He teaches me.

My Hatyai Home

In 2015 my family traded the food carts of Portland, Oregon for the street foods of Thailand. After living in Bangkok for a season, we relocated to the city of Hatyai in 2020 (located near the Thailand-Malaysia border). There is much beauty and complexity in my expat life, and I'm strive to embrace both joyfully.

My Crew

My amazing husband of 17 years is the love of my life. Laughing together is my favorite thing in the world. We have a bit of a Little Women vibe happening in our home with 3 daughters (15, 6, and 5). I adore my little family!

"Take the very hardest thing in your life - the place of difficulty, outward or inward, and expect God to triumph gloriously in that very spot. Just there He can bring your soul into blossom."
