Where I serve

I am so blessed and excited to announce that I will be serving at Carroll College in Helena Montana this fall. Go Saints! IMG 4970

My Story

Although I grew up Catholic, it wasn’t until college that I truly encountered Jesus as someone who desired a relationship with me. After years of trying to balance faith with finding my identity in soccer, achievement, and the approval of others, God used injury, disappointments, and seasons of uncertainty to draw me back to Himself. Through the accompaniment of FOCUS missionaries, the experience of SEEK, and serving on mission in Peru, I came to understand that my deepest identity is not in what I do, but in being a beloved daughter of God. The missionaries who invested in me helped me believe that Christ could work through someone like me, despite my imperfections. Now, I hope to walk with students in the same way, helping them encounter the love of Jesus and discover the freedom and purpose found in living fully for Him.

Your Impact

Saying yes to God’s call to mission means relying completely on Him and the generosity of others. While I will be the one serving directly with students, this mission is not mine alone, through your prayers and financial support, you become an essential part of every Bible study, discipleship meeting, and life transformed by Christ. If you feel called to partner with me, I would love the opportunity to share more of my heart for this mission and invite you to join me in bringing the hope, freedom, and joy of the Gospel to college students.
