On a mission trip to Nicaragua when she was a teen, Elizabeth was told by one of the leaders that love and service are the most important things. Since then, she has been guided by those words to give back to those who have loved her in her lifetime, including the team at reBlossom when she was pregnant with her son Clark (2) and then Judah (5 mo).

A native of the Swiss Alps, she enjoys doing things outdoors with her family, gardening, and listening to interesting stories.
