About Me
I am a dreamer, an artist, a daughter, and a follower and lover of Jesus. I am beginning to understand the power of storytelling, and aspire to be a woman of integrity who truly sees others, and is truly seen.
Mission in a moment: "To communicate God's heart for His creation, and see this generation released into God's design for their lives, through discipleship and the arts."
A bit of back story:
I grew up in Nova Scotia, Canada, and after High school, did some training with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) and then became full-time staff shortly after. I started out helping pioneer a new ministry location in Sydney, Australia. I was based there for about 5 years before God called me to move on to go deeper into more training and education for myself for future ministry.
Over the last few years since leaving Sydney, I have recieved some great training. Through these training courses and also 'on the job' type serving, I have been to Switzerland, Quebec, French Polynesia, Nova Scotia, and Kona, Hawaii. But not only that, I have been able to connect myself better with YWAM as a whole and build relationships for the future, as well as grow spiritually and develop more into the person God is calling me to be. Big dreams need big teams, they can't be done by one person alone... THANK GOD that He doesn't expect us to change the world alone.
Currently, I am based out of Kona, Hawaii, while working towards a degree with the UofN (YWAM's university) and also serving/Interning with a local performing arts ministry here called 'Heartbridge'. For more info on YWAM or Heartbridge, check out the 'Missions - Get Involved' page.
