Get to Know Your Counselor

What is your favorite college memory?

Thursday nights were the best part of college for me. That was the night when my friends and I met to worship, fellowship, and learn from the Bible. A lot of growth occurred during that time. Afterwards we'd go to a local fast-food restaurant and talk about what was going on in our lives, then we'd plan the night's events. We did something different every Thursday (ice-blocking, watch movies, game night, Playstation, jam sessions, the "launch pad," etc.), but it was always entertaining, and I loved the fellowship!

Who has had the greatest influence on your life?

My mom has had the greatest influence on my life. My mom did a great job of raising three boys by herself, after my dad passed away, and I wouldn't be where I am without her. She has encouraged and supported me in anything I've done, and I've learned a lot from her example of love and hard work.

What are your life goals?

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