Meet the team BRITTANY SHULT| SC STAFF WRITER RACHEL SCHROCK|VA FOUNDER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR Rae’s unique life experiences and love for writing inspired her form DOP in 2010. She loves Jesus and longs for all women to experience healing and freedom through an intimate friendship with Him. She loves many things, but especially the color red, jazz, good coffee, graphic design, and her family. In her free time, she can be found undertaking DIY projects, traveling the world, or behind the lens of her beloved Canon. One of her favorite places in the whole wide world is Mae Sot Thailand, where she spent 6 wonderful months in 2011 and 2012. Above all, she strives to experience the precious gift of life with grace and gratitude. Brittany is a schoolteacher currently living in the lovely state of South Carolina. She loves teaching her 2nd-5th graders and learning life lessons from them. Jesus is her Friend; she is thankful for everything He has done for her. She is excited about the plans that He has for her. Some of her hobbies include reading a good book and whipping up some baked goods in the kitchen, especially cupcakes! She will take a warm sunshiney day and flip flops over cold dreary winter days. MARLENE STOLTZFUS|PA STAFF WRITER Marlene enjoys learning, living simply, and using creativity to meet a new challenge.
