About Me


I grew up in Colorado and moved to San Diego with my family during my freshman year of high school. I did a bit of traveling in my 20's and now am back in San Diego to finish my degree and get my teaching credential.
I've searched for a long time for the things in this world that satisfy. I've finally found the wellspring of life and it's all through Jesus Christ.
But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.” (Matthew 9:13)
"Those who believe they believe in God, but without passion in their hearts, without anguish in their mind, without uncertainty, without doubt, without an element of despair even in their consolation, believe only in the God idea, not God Himself." - Miguel de Unamuno

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Jesus, Peter, Paul Simon, Beck Hansen, Shackelton and you!
