Where I serve

I serve as a first-year missionary with FOCUS, helping to change the lives of many college students on campus by bringing hope to them and spreading the Gospel of Christ! So then we can make missionary disciples on this mission to reach even more people!

My Story

When I was a freshman in college, I was not able to find an authentic Catholic community that loved and cared for me just as Christ does for each of us. I felt lost and depressed because I did not have authentic friendships deeply rooted in Christ to support me.

My whole life changed once I discovered a strong Catholic community when I transferred to Colorado State University in Fort Collins and got invited by a FOCUS missionary to the SEEK conference.

There, I was able to meet other college students who were also seeking Christ-centered friendships and authentic community!

That was when I finally found the Lord’s light and hope through seeing other college students, like me, yearning to find the light of Christ! This allowed me to deepen my faith and trust in the Lord!

The welcoming Catholic community I found on campus allowed me to experience more JOY and HOPE than I ever knew existed.

Now, it is my turn to welcome other college students to discover the type of joy and hope that I experienced as a college student!

I recently graduated from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications!

You are truly wonderful and such a blessing to many!

The fact that you decided and felt called to support FOCUS is truly amazing.

You are inspiring and providing hope, light, and love to so many young adults who did not feel truly valued, just like I felt.

For this, I am so utterly blessed and grateful for your heart and the person that you are.
