I am a 21-year-old aspiring writer, photographer, creator, and humanitarian, born and bred in the suburbs of Nashville, Tennessee.  I recently graduated fromMaryville College with an undergrad liberal arts degree in Writing and Visual Communications. I want to be a woman who is passionate, genuine, adventurous, spontaneous, gracious, scandalously free, and quick to celebrate others! 

My dream and my passion is to share people’s stories in a unique and creative way, to give a voice to those whom the world has silenced, and to shout from the rooftops all the beauty and the goodness in the Kingdom of God. Someone once told me that they believe the whole world is my playground, that the whole planet is my home-base. I couldn’t be more flattered!

These are a few of my favorite things …Grace, flying, cultural anthropology, Steinbeck’s East of Eden, The Tree of Life film, weddings, avocados, Europe, holidays, banjos, figure skating, the color mustard, timshel, vinyl records, documentaries, Indians, British accents, heights, braided hair, thrifting, nature, women’s education, poetry, change & risk.

“She works beautifully for Jesus—the most important is that she knows how to suffer and at the same time how to laugh. That is the most important—she suffers and she laughs.” Mother Teresa
