Following a transformative salvation experience in college, I traveled to Hong Kong on a mission trip with Campus Crusade for Christ(Cru). That trip ignited a passion for sharing God’s love with the nations.

Over the years, various opportunities to connect with international students, immigrants, and refugees fostered in me a growing desire to understand God’s plan to reach all nations with His life-saving truth. The Perspectives course opened my eyes to the reality that opportunities for building friendships with internationals were not only in my city, but practically in my own backyard. I became an English Conversation and Friendship partner forming many meaningful and long-lasting friendships. For years, I prayed that God would allow me serve Him in this realm. That prayer was answered in 2020 when I joined the staff of IFI.

Through time and experience , I’ve learned the importance of prayer – nothing is accomplished without first seeking God first. He invites us to partner with Him in fulfilling His purposes, and our part is to stay in regular communication with Him, listen for His guidance, and faithfully follow His lead. I am honored to do this work alongside the dedicated staff at IFI.
