Get to Know Your Counselor

What do you love about Biola?

I love that the mission of the University is, essentially, to change the world for Jesus Christ by equipping students. What could be more important than that? Furthermore, it's that higher goal that drives everything Biola does. Everything from hiring only Christian professors to requiring students to take Bible classes is evidence of the Biola commitment to see a genuine transformation occur in the lives of students.

What is your favorite place on campus? Why?

The Mezzanine in the library is a great place to sit down and have a good long read. I like it because it has an incredible view of the campus and is a great place to get your heart and mind in order - very relaxing.

Where do you hang out in Los Angeles?

I love to go to the beach on a Saturday afternoon and just relax. There's always good surf and sun, plus I like to eat at Moe's BBQ on Main Street. That's some good times right there! I am also a fan of downtown Disneyland and frequently use my season pass at the main park. (It is the happiest place on earth after all :)
