After serving my first two years as a missionary at the University of Idaho and making the move to Europe last year to serve at UCD in Dublin, Ireland, I am so excited to now serve the campuses here in Krems an der Donau, Austria! I can’t wait to share the Gospel and walk with students here in the German-speaking world!

My story is one of Jesus’ consistent and tender pursuit of my heart. Although I grew up Catholic, I always longed to learn more about how to pray and who the person of Jesus Christ is. Even after serving in high school youth ministry throughout high school and my first two years of college, I always found myself living enslaved by bad habits and placing my identity in things that would never satisfy. Once I transferred to San Diego State University for my last two years of college, I began to see the Father’s great love for me through being in a FOCUS Bible study, entering into fellowship at the Newman center at SDSU, and having FOCUS missionaries walk with me and call me higher. The more I came to know who Jesus Christ is and made the effort and sacrifices to strengthen my relationship with Him, I experienced the depth and beauty of His love and mercy for me personally, and I was forever changed. I learned that I don’t have to earn love, for I am already infinitely loved as His beloved daughter, and that He has more wonderful plans for me than I could ever imagine in my wildest dreams. I soon became so convicted that if I surrender my life to Him and trust Him with everything, He provides for everything I could possibly need, and He wants every soul to live out of deep trust in Him.

Having said yes to His call to serve Him as a FOCUS missionary, I desire to intentionally walk with students as other missionaries did for me to show them how Jesus is the fulfillment of every desire of our heart, and therefore is worth giving everything to. As Jesus continues to deepen my relationship with Him, He reveals His burning love for souls, and places that burning love in my heart as well. I pray that I may be led by the Holy Spirit in fulfilling the Father’s will for my life and bringing others to His feet.  I invite you to join me in this mission of knowing Christ Jesus and fulfilling the Great Commission.

When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know of the best way to reach you and I will schedule an appointment. I’d be honored to share this mission with you.

I look forward to being on mission for Jesus Christ with you! God bless!
