Current Priorities

The first 2 of my four-year term will be dedicated to language study. However, there will be opportunities to engage in maternal and child health initiatives, especially as my language abilities increase. During this time, I will also be looking into partnerships for longer-term projects in the region after language study.

Vision

My vision is for people to experience the healing power of Jesus, physically, mentally and spiritually. I long for people to break free from the pervasive hopelessness so many feel and to have their hope restored through Jesus.

Bio

I came to faith at a young age but started to make it my own in middle school. I have always dreamed of working internationally as a teacher. However, on an exchange trip in high school, God led me to pursue international aid and development. Little did I know that partway through my program, he would call me to go into nursing afterwards. Through my studies in university, I developed a passion for social justice and a heart for the Middle East. After completing an Apprenticeship in the region, God further confirmed this call. God has placed in my heart a desire to come alongside people who have been displaced or affected by conflict and due to various reasons, feel unseen, overlooked, or forgotten.
