I grew up in a loving Christian home with my parents and younger sister. When I was 4 years old I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior, while sitting and praying with my mom. Then when I turned 18 I was baptized, and that was when I truly began to grow in my relationship with God. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, and you can always find me with a cup of tea and a good book.

What is your favorite season & why?

I love fall! The changing colors reminds me that we are starting a new chapter, both in the season and in life. It reminds me to be thankful for what I have, what I am going through, and all that God has next for me. I also love all the things you can do in the fall, like corn mazes, pumpkin patches, hay rides, pumpkin spice lattes, and all other outdoor adventures.

One thing people don't know about you?

I read about 14 or 15 books at once! It sounds crazy, but I love it.

A place you would like to visit?

Europe! I want to travel or go backpacking through Europe, and definitely visit France or Greece when I go.

What is your favorite book?

This is so hard, because I love so many. My favorite book in the Bible is Esther. My favorite series that I grew up with, and that I am almost always rereading is Dragons in Our Midst. It is a Christian fantasy series that reminds me of Narnia and pulls in tales of Arthur, Merlin, and the knights of the round table.
