Meet the Staff
Reuel Maddela
Assistant Resident Director, Graduate and Family Student Housing
Office Phone: ext. 4145
Email Address: reuel.maddela@biola.edu
Hello! I am Reuel, born and raised in Hyderabad, India. I lived in Mississippi and Arizona before moving to Biola to study at Talbot School of Theology in the MA Philosophy program. I finished my undergraduate in Computer Programming at Grand Canyon University, where I also served as a Resident Assistant (RA), gaining Housing and Residence Life experience. I worked in the tech industry for four years, during which I got married, had a baby, and felt convicted to leave my job and study Philosophy at Talbot Seminary. I began at Biola Housing as a Graduate Assistant before transitioning to the role of Assistant Resident Director of Grad and Family Housing. As a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ, and as one being equipped in Philosophy, I set myself to engage in contending for the faith and truth in Christ. This also means that I contend for my residents as they set out to study at Biola in what God has enabled them. I intend my residents to be their best in well-being by meeting their housing needs as grad and family residents so they can have their best time whilst studying at Biola, intellectually and familially in Christ. Please don’t hesitate to reach out regarding housing, life, faith, philosophy, and apologetics, and we can meet over coffee (or I can just make you Chai!)
Community Advisors (CA)
Austin Holloway
Rosecrans 1 & 2
Hello! My name is Austin Holloway. I am a second year graduate student at Rosemead School of Psychology. I had the pleasure of also studying at Biola for my undergraduate degree, which is where I met my lovely wife Jackie! Me and Jackie currently live in Rosecrans 2 and are expecting our first baby! We love building community and are so excited to be in this unique space with other supportive Christian couples. Jackie and I understand that being married and in school can be challenging, so our prayer is that Rosecrans 1 & 2 is that we can be a supportive and encouraging community as we all do life together.
