For the past year, I have been on an incredibly wild journey with Jesus, learning to hear His voice and follow His guidance with simple obedience and zeal.

It began with Him asking me to not attend Vanguard University for my senior year, and follow His guidance to Bethel's School of Supernatural Ministry in Redding, California. All of my life, I had found my identity in how well I did in school and the type of student I was. To surrender my idea of worth that had been built on how well I did in school was the beginning of following His voice with simple obedience.

At Bethel, I spent 7 months in deep study of the Bible, learning more of the character and nature of God through His word. I grew here in having greater expectancy for signs and wonders to follow those who pursue Jesus, and how to step out in faith with hearing what God is saying, and then saying it to encourage the Church! The Lord knew I needed to have greater trust that I heard His voice for the next step in my journey with Him!

During this time at Bethel, the Lord showed me He was now leading me to Kona, Hawaii! This was a big leap of faith, but after all the Lord and I had been through so far how could I not go? I got on a plane and flew to Hawaii unsure of why... yet! As I was there the Lord led me to Youth With a Mission's Fire and Fragrance: Extreme Places Discipleship Training School. This grew my faith tremendously in hearing God's voice, financial provision, expectancy for healing and freedom, and in the power of prayer!

For 3 months I was in Hawaii, and for 3 months I went to Bangladesh and Nepal and served God's people in the nations. It was here that I truly learned how to die to my own desires and wants, pick up my cross, and radically love the people around me in humility. Thank you Jesus!

The number one thing I want you to take away from my resume is that I love Jesus with everything inside of me and I desire to look more like Him each day.
