About Me



I am a missionary working with G.O. Ministries in the Dominican Republic and Haiti. Email me at [email protected] if you would like some more information.



"All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly. AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES."

And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well.
Go in peace. You have been healed."
Matthew 5:34

My Interests

the ocean, a good book, my toes in the sand,things or people that inspire change, sitting under a tree, nature of any kind, hiking in the mountains, relaxing, sushi, things green and white, rainy days, playing in the rain, peppermint tea, the clouds, when my heart is so overjoyed it feels like it might burst, being inspired by music, waking up early to watch the sunrise, a clean room, the smell of eucalyptus and spearmint, forgiveness and grace, watching a child fall in love with Jesus, worshiping hard, tulips... lots and lots of tulips.

I'd like to meet:

risk takers & world changers
