I grew up in West Palm Beach, Florida for the first 6 years of my life.  On my 6th birthday, May 26, 1995, we moved to Gainesville, Georgia where we have spent the last 11 years living.   That was the only move I have ever done in my life and I grew rapidly attached to our new home in Gainesville.  Every summer since I can remember consists of a missions trip to some foreign country or state and a family reunion with everyone on my dads side of the family.  

My mission trips to foreign countries include: Mexico, Peru, Swaziland, South Africa  and many places in the U.S.  The family reunion has been held: 6 times in the Gila wilderness, New Mexico -2 Pheonix, Arizona - San Fransisco, California - Helen, Georgia - South Carolina - Glen Erie, Colorado,

The passion of my life is my Lord Jesus Christ and serving him.  I also love performing - acting and dancing (I do not sing).  The mission trip to South Africa was a 10 month mission trip where I joined a performing arts ministry that trains then tours all through out South Africa performing at schools and churches, then ministering to the audiences.

I participated in school plays my freshman and sophmore year in highschool, as well as a couple of plays at Brenau University and the Kudzu Playhouse.  I participated in a homeschool speech and debate league called NCFCA(national christian forensics and communicators association) which held tournaments all over the US for competitive homeschoolers, and I qualified for the National tournament in 4 speech events.

I love nature and tend to feel closest to God when I am exploring it or spending time outside. 

My hobbies include: reading, music, acting, dancing, hanging out with friends, laughing, playing speed scrabble, gem drop and snood, being crazy with friends or just chilling.

When I die I want my last words to be: God always has a purpose, and the power to redeem.
