Director of Compassion and Women's Ministries

"I am originally from Utah, but moved to Southern California to attend CBU in 2005. My experience studying in the Business Program, participating in extra-curricular activities, and serving with International Service Project (ISP) shaped so much of who I am today. CBU is such a special place, and I love my job as Director of Compassion and Women's Ministries since it allows me to be a part of helping students explore what it looks like to follow Christ!"
