The Father’s Heart beats for you.

Where I serve

I am excited to be serving as a part of the FOCUS Mission Development Team. I have the great privilege of serving benefactors around the country who support our missionary efforts – accompanying leaders in the Church in bible study and discipleship groups. Now, I get to engage in the “behind the scenes” work that makes it possible for FOCUS to continue sending missionaries to more places to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world.

Beyond this, I am blessed to continue sharing the Gospel in my local community.

This is my eighth year working as a missionary with FOCUS, and I am beyond grateful for each person whom I have encountered. Over the years, I was blessed to serve the campuses of Northern Arizona University, Black Hills State University, The University of Northern Colorado, and The University of Colorado Colorado Springs; I have also been humbled to lead retreats and to serve on mission trips around the world.

I have a passion for stories. I would love the opportunity to hear yours, to share mine, and to invite you more deeply into The Father’s.

My Story

Jesus is so good. I grew up with God in my life, but encountered Him at a new depth during my time in College. He changed my life, and I am not the same. Now, I live in His promises. I labor for His Kingdom. I abide in His Heart. All I want is to know Him and make Him Known; to Love Him and make Him Loved.

To live in the deeps of His Mercy. To love with His Thirst.

Your Impact

You are changing the world. By your prayer, your kindness, and your love, you are reaching the lost and broken with the Joy and Hope of the Gospel.

One of my favorite parts of my role is that I get to rely on your prayers and on your kind gifts for support. Thank you for partnering with me to grow God’s kingdom, and thank you for your “Yes.”

I am humbled and honored to share this mission with you. Jesus Christ is Lord.
