About About Michelle

A Brief History:

Michelle spent her largely misspent youth rambling and shambling from city to city until happy fortune would bring her to dwell in the great state of corn and Platte Rivers: Nebraska. Schooled largely from the home, she bears the the mark born by all truly home-schooled girls: a past filled with dresses she made herself. Since those golden days, she has graduated from New St. Andrews in Moscow, Idaho, traded in her enormous spectacles for contacts, taught classically, and fallen in love. Michelle has attended Westminster Seminary in Escondido, California and is planning to one day write her thesis on Ephrem the Syrian and then obtain her Master’s degree in Historical Theology.
