About Me

I grew up in Arlington Heights, Illinois, and have always loved the fun, people, and different cultures the city of Chicago has to offer. I learned about all the challenges and struggles of being a student in a new place when I started attending the University of St Thomas in St Paul, MN, and studied abroad in London, England. The Lord provided community for me in this lonely time through the Salt Company where I became a follower of Jesus my sophomore year of college. It was in student leadership at Salt where my heart for college students grew and formed lifelong friendships with international students at St Thomas! I’m so excited to be back in my home city to welcome students to Chicago and support them along their college journey. One of my favorite ways to connect with students is by offering them rides to where they need to go. It’s such a blessing to have my own car, get to hear their stories and, become friends along the way! I also love singing, playing guitar, and trying new coffee shops!

I am looking for financial partners and prayers to help support the costs of my role at IFI. I will be working directly with college students showing them God’s love through friendship and hospitality. I would greatly appreciate your monthly contribution as well as one-time donations to start my journey at IFI. Your contributions and prayers mean so much! Please don’t hesitate to reach out and share this opportunity with others. I really appreciate your support!
