God called me to the mission field and to working with children in many different ways throughout my life. The earliest memory I have of this calling is the passion for sending Christmas shoeboxes to kids around the world. Once I moved to college, I participated in a missions training program called the HEART Village. After completing the program, I felt like God was leading me to more.

The summer before my senior year of college I took a six-week trip with WGM to Bolivia. I spent time volunteering at the Santa Cruz Christian Learning Center (SCCLC) and seeing what life was like on the mission field. These combined experiences led to a commitment to serving long term globally. I wish to use my degree in education to make a difference around the world.

While serving at the Asunción Christian Academy, I will be connecting my faith to my career. Paraguay is the place where I feel God has called me to serve. While in Asunción, I hope to help students love to learn (academic) and learn to love (spiritual). I still remember the teachers who made an impact on my life, and I hope to make that same difference in the lives of my students.
