From: Pittsburgh, PA

Favorite Scripture Passage: Psalm 27:14 – “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”

Things I Like To Do: I love playing board games and card games – the Settlers of Catan & Dominion are my two favorites; I also enjoy cooking, baking, and trying new recipes; exercising, roller coasters, hiking, Steelers football, coffee, shopping, and spending time with family and friends

Advice for Incoming Students: I always like to encourage my students to work through the entire Admissions process before making a final college decision. You never know what your financial aid package will look like until you have it in front of you and you may be surprised by the aid you receive.

I also encourage incoming students to continually seek the Lord for wisdom and guidance in this area. Choosing a college is a huge decision that will have a lasting impact on your life. It is my ultimate desire to see each of my students follow the Lord’s call on their lives, whether or not TFC is the right fit for them.

Major: Early Childhood Education

Year: Junior

Why did you choose TFC? I chose to attend TFC because I was looking for a Christ-centered campus where I could get a solid education, and where I would be surrounded by people who are genuine in their faith. TFC has proven to have everything I was looking for in a school and much more. The professors and staff are genuinely interested in me as a person rather than just another number in a class. My friends and professors are prayer warriors and have given me encouragement when needed. TFC is what I picture when I think about Proverbs 27:17, which says, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
