The Lord knew all along.
May my life bring glory to His name and His name alone.
I was born and raised in Suffolk, Virginia. The good ole 757!
Growing up, you could find me on the ball field just about every single day. Softball was my passion and I loved it. Every single aspect of the game. The successes, the failures, the walkoffs, the diving catches, and even the strikeouts. The game truly became my identity, but I didn't realize it at the time.
August 2015
I moved to Rock Hill, SC to continue my softball career at Winthrop University. My main focus in school was to be a good ballplayer while majoring in Mass Communications with a concentration in Broadcasting and minor in Spanish. (Discloser: I had no idea I would eventually move to a Spanish speaking country! WU required certain majors to have a minor as well and I loved the Spanish language.)
Little did I know what The Lord had in store.
December 3rd, 2017.
A date I will never forget. It's when I gave my life to Christ at a Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) winter camp!
At 20-years-old I fully felt His presence. A presence and a peace that truly transcends all understanding. I was slowly realizing my identity was not of this world, but in God.

Ball Field To Producer Booth 🥎 📺
May 2019
After college, I moved to Charleston, South Carolina to be a news producer. My love for the Lord continued to grow, my desire to be near Him never stopped, but a piece of me never felt complete.

November 2021
I moved to a bigger news market in Tampa, Florida to work for the local NBC affiliate.
BUT🤚
I moved news markets, I received one of the best shows to produce, I even produced news specials, BUT I still felt empty.
It was a constant wrestle between me and God. What calling does He have for me? Why do I feel incomplete?

February 14th, 2023
God made it known.
Me and JJ were Facetiming and I expressed that I really feel the Lord calling me to DR. He proceeded to show me messages between us from 2018. 5 days after we met. I told him I would love to do missions one day SPECIFICALLY in a Spanish speaking country, but I wasn't sure how my family would respond.

Instagram messages between me and JJ from October 31, 2018
From 2018 to 2023.
The Lord had already planned every detail.

April 27th, 2024
I married my best friend.
May 21st, 2024
I moved to Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic with JJ!
Ever since that day, I understood my wrestling. I understood the confusion.
My heart finally felt complete. Living my true calling, hand in hand with my best friend.
If you feel the Holy Spirit nudge you one way, trust it. Don't look back. No matter how scary it may feel.
Chasing the Lord is the greatest life one could live. It's all for Your Glory, Jesus. Not ours.
