About Me

hello everyone! i guess i'm just a simple girl with HUGE dreams. i love God, people, and life! i want to one day live in Africa and set up health programs in the sub-sahara regions. i want to see Africa transformed one life at a time. "When the character of Christ is formed within, you are no longer simply an echo but a voice." I never want to live a life of conformity but the unique, passionate, adventureous life that God created me to live. "God's will for us is less about our comfort than it is about our contribution. God would never choose for us safety at the cost of significance." You know what you are really passionate about when you are willing to lay your life down for it"
