I grew up in a Christian household that taught me the love of Jesus with their actions. I attended a church that is Biblically founded and grew in my knowledge of Scripture. I loved Jesus from a very early age and wanted to live my life for Him. At a high school Bible camp, I felt called into ministry. I decided to attend the University of Northwestern for a degree in Youth and Emerging Adults Ministry.
My freshman year of college, I met a woman on staff with Campus Outreach who dramatically impacted my life by diving into the gospel with me. Because of this woman being intentional with me through friendship, one-on-one Bible study and group Bible study, I deepened my faith with a fuller understanding of the gospel. Now I feel called to serve others the same way CO staff served me.
