Best Thing Someone Said to You: “Hi” … It was when a guy I didn't know started a conversation with me in a class during my freshman year of college. The conversation led to a friendship; the friendship led to visiting Gateway Church … salvation and freedom followed shortly.

My Heroes: My parents

One of My Greatest Experiences with God: Eating lunch at a Southlake bakery in 2005 when God told me to change my college major and give up music education so I could work with kids/students in ministry.
