“I plead with you never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.”

– St. Pope John Paul II

Where I serve

I will be serving at James Madison University in Virginia! GO DUKES! I am very excited to be serving at such a beautiful campus and cannot wait to encounter the students! I have only heard amazing things about JMU and know that the Lord’s grace and mercy are abundant here!

My Story

As a missionary, my greatest desire is to encounter people and bring them closer to Christ. My relationship with Jesus has changed immensely by other missionaries meeting me, in different stages of life. Jesus took His disciples to towns and walked with others in their lives. My mission is to imitate the life of Christ and help people find the joy, love, and mercy that He has shown me!

Your Impact

When committing to FOCUS, we are saying yes to the spiritual and financial reliance of mission partners. Mission partners are part of the mission just as much as the students we encounter on campus. I know each person, I ask for spiritual and financial support will grow in their relationship with the Lord in beautiful ways. If you are interested in supporting or learning more, please send me your contact information and I would love to set up a meeting with you! Remember that you are loved and a beloved son or daughter of Christ!
