Hi! Well I guess I should start with the basics...I'm from Lexington, Kentucky and I have lived there my entire life. I just graduated from Wittenberg University in Springfield, OH with a degree in Early Childhood Education (and a minor in Psychology, because I think it's fasinating). I have a wonderful family and amazing friends.  In my free time I like to go running, read, watch Home and Garden Television and re-runs of Full house, cheer on the UK wildcats, listen to music, dance like crazy, and sing at the top of my lungs. I love kids and want to be a first grade teacher:)

Last summer I went to Kenya with AIM on an Ambassador Team.  The experience was more than I could have imagined it would be. My teammates were awesome and taught me SO much. I fell in love with Africa right away and knew that I was being called to go back for longer. I'm so excited to be part of the FYM Africa team and can't wait for all the unreal things God is going to do with us, and through us and all the things we will learn from each other and the people we meet.

"God, who calls you, is faithful, HE will do this."
