“Know the greatest service that man can offer to God is to help convert souls”

And you’re offering that service to God!

Where We serve

I am blessed to be serving at the University of Alabama in Huntsville! It is my Alma Mater, and I am excited to be working alongside the Holy Spirit in growing the mission of making disciples of all nations. With nearly 10,000 students on campus, there is plenty of opportunities for souls to say “YES” to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I am excited to serve alongside you with my family this year!

Our Story

I decided to give my life to “make disciples of all nations” while attending the University of Alabama in Huntsville.

I entered college during the Covid-19 pandemic. This led to isolation and hopelessness about the future…

Thankfully, someone made a bold ask for me to attend a FOCUS conference I had never heard of called “SEEK.”

I prayed for the Lord to guide me into His will. This led to an overwhelming amount of peace and joy when He placed a burning desire on my heart..

“Go therefore, and make disciples of ALL nations.”

Since then, I joined a bible study and entered into discipleship with a missionary and my life was never the same.

I am now committed to sharing the FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE Jesus Christ wants for us to as many people as I can!

This will be my third year as a missionary:

Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology from the University of Alabama Huntsville (Spring 2024)
Served at the University of Miami (Fall 2024 – Spring 2026)
Serving at the University of Alabama in Huntsville as Team Director (Fall 2026 – Present)
