Visiting Portico Church

Amy was born and raised in Charlottesville, Virginia (Go Hoos!) and has called Portico home since 2008. She earned her B.S. in Public Health from James Madison University and a Master’s in Special Education from Mary Baldwin. Before becoming a mom, Amy worked as a special education teacher with Albemarle County Public Schools.

At Portico, Amy has served in a variety of volunteer and staff roles, especially within Portico Kids. Along the way, she met and married her Community Group sweetheart, Jeremiah, and together they’re raising three beautiful children.

Now serving as our Connections Director, Amy is passionate about helping others find meaningful relationships and a place to belong. She loves meeting new people each week and desires to see everyone find a church family they can call home. She has a special gift for getting visitors plugged into Community Groups.

Outside of church life, Amy enjoys baking, shopping, 90s country, family nights at Guad, workouts at BURN Bootcamp, Grit coffee, and spending time on the water. She also loves opening her home to friends and family—and can’t wait to connect with you on a Sunday morning!
