I’m a third year at Colorado State University, Go Rams! I’m serving as the Team Director alongside an incredible team: Jackson, Hannah, Emma, and Anna. I’m excited and grateful for the opportunity to invest in my teammates and the students at CO State to help them know Jesus Christ, grow in friendship, develop their skills, and become more fully the man/woman that God has called them to be!

I grew up in a devout Catholic household, surrounded by the love of my family of six. Transitioning to college, like many, I faced challenges regarding my faith. With limited resources and minimal encouragement, I found myself settling into a routine of lukewarm faith, attending Mass on Sundays more out of habit than conviction.

A pivotal turning point came when I embarked on a FOCUS mission trip to Costa Rica during my college years. In those ten days, I experienced the Lord’s power and love in a way that I never had before. Motivated by this newfound faith, I signed up for a second mission trip the following summer in Denver, CO.

Over the course of ten weeks in Denver, I learned invaluable lessons in time management, spiritual growth, and community bonding. It was a summer of profound change, sparking a new internal fire to live a life devoted to God.

As my college years drew to a close, I found myself at a crossroads. While planning to pursue graduate studies in accounting at the University of Tennessee – Knoxville, I realized that my heart was elsewhere. An impactful internship in accounting shed light on the realization that I was blessed with gifts from God that were meant for a different purpose.

Reflecting on my post graduate options, I recognized that becoming a FOCUS missionary would give me the opportunity to capitalize on my God-given talents, while fulfilling my desire to share the word of God with others to live a life centered in Christ.

As a FOCUS Missionary, I rely on the financial and spiritual support from my mission partners. I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. Without their generosity, I would not be able to serve the students on campus or show them the love and goodness of Christ!

If you also desire to spread the love of Jesus with others, I’d be honored to share this mission with you. Contact me by clicking on the icons below the profile picture and I’d love to set up an appointment to meet!
