Where I serve

God has called me to serve college students, and I am thrilled to be serving at Miami University in Oxford, OH. I would love for you to support me as you join me on mission!

My Story

I am thankful to have been raised Catholic, and my faith has always been an important part of my life. While attending college at Truman State University (go dawgs!), the journey of my faith was filled with highs and lows, with many things outside of the faith fighting for my attention. My junior year, I found myself seeking happiness and satisfaction from the world more than ever before.

Upon my return to campus senior year, Jesus showed me Himself and the unconditional love He has for me. A love He always had, even when I didn’t see it or believe it. From then on, my life was changed. I ran back to His open arms and was flooded by His love and mercy. I wanted to give everything to Christ, because He had given everything to me.

After graduating with my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, I began working full-time in human resources for an engineering company. I was able to attend FOCUS’s SEEK conference in St. Louis just two weeks after my graduation. There, the Lord gently invited me to give Him everything by becoming a missionary with FOCUS. The Lord is good and oh so loving, and it is a great privilege to get to serve Him and His Church on college mission, encountering and walking with students, and forming more disciples to build up His Kingdom.

Your Impact

In the words of St. Paul to his mission partners, “I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace” (Philippians 1:7). You truly are partakers in this mission with me, and I am ecstatic to bring you with me to help students encounter Christ. I am so thankful for your “yes” to coming on mission with me. Be assured of my prayers!

I would love to talk more about this mission and how you can make a difference. You can reach me at [email protected] or 636-346-4213.
