Short & simple seems to be the best option for this portion of my blog!

I want this to be a place where you can quickly get to know general information about me. The post entitled ‘My Story’, on the other hand, allows you to get to know me on a much deeper level. With that said, here’s a few statements that will allow you to get to know me better!

  1. I’m a born again Christian, saved by the grace of God, amazed at His faithfulness daily, and thankful for His unconditional love & unending mercy.
  2. My family is fantastic, & they’re my absolute best friends! My oldest bother got married this summer, and I cannot express how thankful I am for my sister-in-law. I have one younger sister & two younger brothers, along with the best parents a kid could have!
  3. I LOVE to run
  4. My first mission trip was to Juarez, Mexico with my church. This is where my interest in mission work really began (again, read ‘My Story’ for more details!)
  5. I’m 22 & will graduate from South Dakota State University in May with a degree in Human Development & Family Studies. 
  6. International adoption is one of my greatest passions. I was blessed with the opportunity to be the international adoption intern at The Gladney Center for Adoption in Texas this past summer. My experience at this agency was fantastic!
  7. Miscellaneous: dessert is my favorite, I can be extremely indecisive, my Myers-Briggs category is ISFJ, early mornings are enjoyable, & breakfast for supper is always acceptable.
