About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to meet many different people from all walks of life and make an impact in their life big or small and to have loads of fun in the process!

ABOUT ME

First and foremost I am a Christian. I love God, His word and His people and want to share that love with others. I am a very creative person have all these crazy ideas in my head which is awesome and always entertaining. Hmmmm...I've lived on my own for two years, a year in California and a year in Las Vegas...My dad is Hispanic and Ethiopian (thought that was pretty cool) Oh! I'm a writing major looooooooooove to write and I'm pretty durn good if I do say so my self. I love life...love indie music such as Mumford and Sons, Radiohead, Imogen Heap, Fleet Foxes ect...Hmmm...I love reading and can read really fast. I plan to travel the world and have marked off 3 places so far. Japan, Jamaica and the Caymen Islands! Oh and I love food...love to try new and intresting food from different parts of the world. There is more to me than these words but I'm tired of typing lol:)

PHILOSOPHY

God is the reason we are all here and He created us to be with Him, but because of sin we were seperated. But God had so much love for us (it's insane!) that He sent Jesus to bridge the gap between man and God and now when we accept Jesus we can know God personally and one day live forever with Him in a perfect world. But until that day, Christians are suppose to share that love with others by serving, teaching, leading others to the Lord. This life isn't about us...it's about God and His people. I want to live out my life serving and loving others as Jesus did:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a week on a cruise with my whole family. I saw the sun set into the infinite water and rise into the infinite sky. We sailed through Cuba to Jamaica and the Caymen Islands. I went to Tohoku (the part of Japan hit very bad by the Tsunami) and got to help build a home. I saw the sea that had taken away all the homes and marveled at how calm it now was when it had destroyed so much. I saw a sky high pile of trash of rotted wood from house that had been torn to bits.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting people from different cultures and being apart of their lives...It's so cool to see the differences in style, food and what they consider entertainment. I like go-getters...people who don't wait for permission or a degree to do something. I like to work along side people who volunteer...I love helping other people.
