Where to even start??? Well, I can start with when I was born:) I was born on September 11, 19894 in Simi Valley, California. I love my parents dearly, and have one awesome younger, big brother and we are actually the first generation of Christians in our family. I grew up all over Southern California until I finished 8th grade, and then relocated due to my dad’s job to Kennesaw, GA, right outside of the ATL. I finished high school in Georgia, and then went off to Cedarville University for my first two years, but then transferred back to Kennesaw State to attempt to finish up my pre-pharmacy track. But after working in a pharmacy for about a year, I decided it was not my cup of tea and switched my major to Business Management. And this May, May 10th to be exact, I graduate from college!! WOO HOO! I am sooo excited!
Lets see, I absolutely love sports, missions, travelling, and being around people. I have been playing A sport since I was 5. I have played baseball/ softball, golf, volleyball, basketball, soccer, and even swam one season, but my first love is definately volleyball. I was fortunate enough to be able to play in college at both schools that I attended, and God has definately used it as a way to coach and build relationships w/ high schoolers around my area. I love to experience new places and people all over the world. I have been very fortunate to go on several mission trips to places like England, Ukraine, Costa Rica, Bahamas, and other places in the US. I think that you just learn so much about yourself, culture, and who God is by being able to see different places of the world and helping and loving on people.
As far as my walk with the Lord, its been a journey with taking. I became a Christian when I was in Sunday School when I was 7, but I dont think that I really began to understand that being a Christian is really a RELATIONSHIP until I was in the 10th grade at a disciple now weekend. That’s when I really began to see this life that we are called to live as Christ Followers. Ever since then its been interesting. I think God has stretched me way further than I thought possible, and I know that He will continue. He has shown me unconditional love and grace when I thought I have haven’t deserved it, and continues to draw me to Him. I’m learning to trust, and to just jump and God will have me land exactly where He wants me:)
