Get to Know Your Counselor

What has your time at Biola taught you?

My time at Biola has taught me that the Body of Christ is definitely made up of many different members, yet we all have something great and unique to teach and contribute to one another's lives. I thank God for the unique individuals He placed in my life at Biola, people who contributed to who I am today!

What advice would you give to your incoming students?

I would love to pass down some advice I received at the start of my college life, "Don't take the opportunities and experiences you have at Biola for granted. College is just a minute in the scheme of your whole life, enjoy every moment of it!"

What is your favorite place on campus? Why?

My favorite place on campus is the bookstore, there's so MUCH stuff you can buy there! Clothes ;-), junk food, and also good reading!!!!
