What is your favorite college memory?
ItÕs really hard for me to pick just ONE! However, if I had to choose I guess I would say the Black History and Cinco de Mayo celebrations we had my senior year. Both of these events were something that the Lord placed on my heart to happen at Biola, yet when we finally had the celebrations it was better than anything I couldÕve imagined or planned out. The Lord worked in the midst of both of these events, and what was so cool was that it was so evident!!!
Who has had the greatest influence on your life?
My parents have had the greatest influence in my life. They are an excellent example of a God-fearing man and woman of God. I know there were A LOT of times I didn't agree with them or even understandy why they did some of the things they did, but now I see that it was all for "my good." I thank God for them everyday.
What do you love about Biola?
I love the integration of faith and academics at Biola. However, the professors teaching those classes put the icing on the cake.
