Your Purpose. Our Mission.

I attended a small liberal arts school as an undergraduate and I valued the small classes, emphasis on teaching, academic community, and mentorship from my professors. I wanted to work in a similar environment in my career, and I really enjoy working one-on-one with students. I also am thankful for the opportunity to talk about my faith and relationship with Christ in the classroom.
