Get to Know Your Counselor

What are your life goals?

I want to influence people for the Kingdom of God - that's all.

What was your favorite class in college? Why?

My favorite class at Biola was a Communications class. The professor was extremely accessible, the students were intelligent and loving, and we had a chance to apply what we were learning in practical ways. We examined popular culture media through the lens of Christianity and openly discussed how faith, communication, and media can be integrated. It was an exciting hands-on class, and I walked away from it with a racing pulse and eyes wide open.

What do you love about Biola?

I love that the mission of the University is, essentially, to change the world for Jesus Christ by equipping students. What could be more important than that? Furthermore, it's that higher goal that drives everything Biola does. Everything from hiring only Christian professors to requiring students to take Bible classes is evidence of the Biola commitment to see a genuine transformation occur in the lives of students.
