About My Family
My husband, Emilio, and I graduated from the University of Oklahoma (OU) in May 2024. During our years as students, we were heavily impacted by the OU Baptist Collegiate Ministry (BCM) and felt God leading us to stay in Norman. We are very passionate about helping students know how to walk with God in overflowing community in college and then transfer that to a lifetime of glorifying God and teaching others to walk with Him.
Emilio is the youth director at River Church in Norman. We are excited to see how God is at work at River and at OU!

About My Ministry
The goal of the OU BCM is to challenge students to know, love and glorify God by declaring the gospel. We want to develop quality disciples and deploy trained disciple-makers into the world. My role is helping to send students overseas, investing in students, creating photo and video content, and equipping students to effectively lead off-campus discipleship groups. We love getting to mobilize and train students to go to the nations and raise them up to be disciple makers.
