Lynda Lantz is originally from Cote D'Ivoire, where she lived until the age of 7 when her family moved to Northern VA. She graduated with a degree in Music from George Mason University, and went on to work with Cru at four universities in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Florida. She was living in PA when she met her husband, Steve, on eHarmony, and moved to Miami in 2011 just a few days after their wedding. Shortly before becoming a SAHM, she was employed as an adoption caseworker and worked part-time with Cru at UM, and later Johnson & Wales University. Since then, she's been heavily involved in BSF and MOPS , which allow her to build relationships, pursue personal growth and develop leadership skills. She loves introducing people to this city she's come to call home, where she lives with her husband and two children. Connect with Lynda @MyBalantzedLife on Instagram.
