About My Family

My parents raised me and my twin sister in Yuba City, Calif. I went to a performing arts high school and am still passionate about music. I graduated from California State University, Chico in spring 2018 with a degree in child development. I enjoy being with new or old friends, taking walks in nature, watching movies, reading, and singing and playing piano. 

About My Ministry

Christian Challenge in Chico, Calif., started in 2009. The mission statement is to love God, love people and develop multiplying disciples to reach the nations. The vision is to see salvation, transformation and multiplication among college students. We have a large group meeting on campus, small-group Bible studies and a student leader meeting all once a week. We focus on personal spiritual growth through one-on-one meetings with those who have recently decided to commit their lives to Christ. Challenge intentionally and relationally shares the gospel across campus. We also have a lot of fun events during each semester to help new and old students connect and build stronger relationships. 

Pray

Please pray that I continue to have a vibrant and reproducible walk with Jesus. Pray for my growth in faith, wisdom, diligence and teachability. Pray that my disciples would make disciples for the rest of their lives. Pray for open hearts from the students at Chico State as we share the gospel. Pray that I reach full support to continue doing this work.

Participate

Many missionaries build a team to join their ministry in prayer, participation, and provision. These friends, family and churches support missionaries beyond the tithes and offerings given within the church plant.
