Bridge Kids Intern

My Motivation

I love seeing kids learn about Jesus and grow in their relationships with God. I’m grateful to see them navigate faith and build a foundation to grow off of as they get older.

My Background

I grew up in Chicago and live with my family in Jefferson Park. I went to Taft High School and I’ll be attending Hope College in the fall. Before working at The Bridge, I worked at The Woods for a few summers on high school staff.

My Spiritual Journey

I grew up knowing about God, but never applied faith to my life. I got saved in middle school at Winter Camp at The Woods. My cousin, Nick, has been a consistent influence on me and my family. Through his help, I was able to connect with Jordan who baptized me three weeks later. I’ve been all-in for Jesus ever since!

One More Thing

My favorite genre of music is jazz which I discovered through watching my favorite movie, Ratatouille.
