Philosophical Biography
The Bible is the first place Christians need to look for advice, comfort, wisdom, and challenge. It is my goal to help students see that the lives Jesus calls us to are challenging and fulfilling. I will achieve this with students by modeling a Christian lifestyle glorifying to Christ, through my interactions with student-athletes in coaching, and relating creation in life science. It is important to me that students view their individual gifts as assets to themselves as individuals and as part of a larger community.
