GET TO KNOW ME:


One of things I find most fascinating: People

Best thing someone said to you: Jesus loves you! 

My Hero: Anyone who keeps getting up when life hits them hard.

One of my greatest experiences with God: On a walk in the mountains during a retreat in Abbotsford, BC.

Most people don't know this about me: I lived in nine states and went to more than ten different schools (and no, my family wasn't military). I think this might be why I'm pretty comfortable talking to just about anyone.

If I could do anything for a day, I would: Hang out with funny family and friends.

Myers Briggs Personality Type as expressed by: I took a special quiz just for you, and it said, "Captain America."

What inspires you? What are you passionate about? I love getting to know and relating to people with different backgrounds, cultures, or experiences.
