Personal Fact: I consider myself a female Indiana Jones. I've hiked a dormant volcano in Hawaii, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef, kayaked the Rock Islands of Palau, climbed the Great Wall of China, swam with sharks and spelunked caves near the Equator. Now, I'm taking on my next adventure as an Orientation Counselor.
Favorite Quote: "We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves." 2 Corinthians 4:7 (New Living Translation)
