Biography
Growing up, my family was in Christian ministry with my parents being directors of Child Evangelism Fellowship in Tyler, my father pastoring, and my whole family participating in various ministry roles. I graduated from Christian Heritage School in Tyler and went on to Tyler Junior College, then East Texas Baptist University where I earned a B.M.Ed. After working as a music educator, I became a certified bilingual teacher and was awarded a scholarship toward a master's degree at Texas Woman's University. I graduated from there with a M.Ed. in Educational Leadership.
My interest in the natural health field grew after having two boys who suffered from bouts of recurring illness. I became a Certified Family Herbalist through Dr. Christopher's School of Natural Healing. In addition, since 2015 I have maintained a ministerial license with the Pastoral Medical Association. My husband David and I and our two youngest children live in the Canton area. David has two grown children who live nearby and we have 5 grandchildren between them! David pastors The Bridge Fellowship in Martin's Mill and I serve on the Praise Team as keyboardist and vocalist. As a minister and natural health professional, I desire to educate my clients on the root causes of their symptoms and how to achieve true healing.

Our Story
Over 14 years ago, our two small boys suffered from bouts of recurring illness. I ventured into using natural remedies after becoming disillusioned with conventional medicines and methods. The results were impressive, providing not only symptomatic relief, but reducing the severity of symptoms and shortening the duration of illness. I came to learn that the over-the-counter medications I had been using only suppress symptoms whereas natural remedies support the immune system so that the body can heal itself.
Through experiencing the healing power of herbal remedies, I came to understand that God created herbs to be our medicine. As my interest in herbs grew, I began to make my own herbal remedies and realized that the process was quite simple! My passion to use and create herbal products developed into a dream for starting an herbal wellness company, Simply Genesis. In addition, my professional experience as an educator has inspired me to continue to educate others in the appropriate use of herbs. I hope you will find the products and resources we offer to be of great value in promoting wellness for you and your family!
