Your Purpose. Our Mission.

The Lord is at the center of my entire existence, and I surrender all aspects of my life, both professional and personal, to Him. As a corporate HR professional, this commitment has posed challenges, yet each obstacle I encounter serves as a reminder that Jesus prioritizes love above all. I am beyond thrilled to join a community that allows for both spiritual and professional growth. I can’t think of a more rewarding career path than one that serves the Lord, the community, and the future of academia.
