God has called me to serve the students at the University of Illinois-Chicago. You can usually find me at the Newman Center, walking around campus, or grabbing a coffee with someone.

My family raised me in the Catholic faith. Throughout middle and high school, I knew God was important, but I never truly had a personal relationship with Him. When I got to college, I got lost in the secular culture and put my identity into everything but God. During my freshman and sophomore years, I felt lost. I knew something was missing from my life, but I couldn’t figure out what it was.

Then a FOCUS missionary reached out and started to invest in me. He led me through Bible studies and invited me to make Jesus the center of my life. He walked with me and showed me what it meant to be a disciple of Christ Jesus, revealing to me my true identity, as a beloved son of God.

I chose to become a FOCUS missionary to invest in students the same way FOCUS missionaries invested in me. Every person deserves a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that will transform their lives, just as it did mine.

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.
