    Johna Lawrence
    Sonlight Marketing & Product Development Coordinator
    Johna is a mom, a Marmee, a Homeschool Administrator and in her spare Mission Board Treasurer. After 23 years of teaching her children and being involved in Homeschool Co-Ops as teacher and in leadership, she has found her biggest passion outside of her family is helping families find the joy of homeschooling, to approach it without fear, and to love the moments as they present themselves. Johna has used Sonlight since their first curriculum purchase in 1999, with four different learning styles with four children it has been the perfect fit for their family. Her favorite verse for approaching life, comes from 2 Timothy 1:7.

    “ for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.”

    Amber Severance
    Homeschool Mom, Sonlight Curriculum Consultant & Mentor
    Before becoming a wife and mom, Amber Severance was a high school teacher and coach at a private school in San Jose, CA. She has been homeschooling since 2002 when her oldest child began pre-k with Sonlight. Amber has five children – one attending graduate school, two in college, one in high school, and one in 6th grade. Because of her husband's graduate schooling and employment, she has had the opportunity to homeschool in four different states. Currently living in Lynchburg, VA, Amber is a full-time homemaker who enjoys encouraging others by serving in children's ministry, mentoring college girls, and leading a ladies' bible study.

    Jennifer Price
    Homeschool Mom, Sonlight Consultant & Mentor
    Jen Moskal Price majored in English at the University of Delaware, so spending a lifetime reading to her children was an appealing idea. She discovered Sonlight early in her homeschool journey, and has used it every year since 2003 with all four of her children. Her oldest graduated from home, and some of the others have gone to public high school. Jen has worked in the Sonlight booth at various conventions for a decade – talking to moms about how to handle more than one HBL at a time, how to balance work and homeschooling, homeschooling as a single mom, and parenting athletes and artists. In her free time, she enjoys driving her kids to their sporting events and trying to convince her husband that he wants a dog.

    Sunny Raybern
    Community & Social Media Manager
    Sunny has loved books for as long as she can remember. Her own parents discovered Sonlight at a convention and knew the literature and history focus would be perfect for her. She never planned to homeschool her own children past pre-k, but when her daughter learned to read, she was hooked. She has educated both of her children entirely with Sonlight. In her spare time, Sunny enjoys reading (of course), musicals, hiking, and being in or near water.
