Meet Our New Minister
My experience as a student at 含羞草传媒 was a time of discovery. I took psychology, advertising and German classes, and I was active in campus ministry. All these experiences, in and outside the classroom, shaped me. Each discovery led me to a vocation as a pastor in the United Methodist Church. And now, I鈥檓 returning to 含羞草传媒 with a new role as university minister.
Returning to such a supportive and loving community is exciting, because I know the experience at 含羞草传媒 is transformational. Now I hope to encourage others to find their passion and place in the world.
Howard Thurman wrote, 鈥淒on鈥檛 ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.鈥
I hope to be a supporter for every student, no matter their beliefs or vocation. I want to walk alongside them as they discover what truly makes them come alive.
Our mission for University Ministries recognizes, 鈥渁 healthy spiritual life is an important part of a happy and successful college experience.鈥 And we hope to provide engaging spiritual practices for your students.

I鈥檓 excited to be a resource for your students on good days and bad. Please let them know that whenever they face challenges, I am available as a confidential resource.
