preface.

Where to start? Oh, I know.

A little about me. Currently I attend the University of Central Oklahoma as Strategic Communications major with a minor in Psychology. I love Jesus, food, dance, sleep and animals. I’m blessed with my very own hero and angel (my parents) and friends whom I consider family.

When I was 16 years old, I went on a mission trip to Haiti for the first time. I fell in love. I can’t stop going. Literally. I have been there every summer now for the past seven years and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.

“If your dreams don’t scare you, they aren’t big enough.”

All my life I have been a dreamer. I knew my calling was to go back to Haiti and stay for a longer period of time. I graduate May of 2015. It’s time to make my dream a reality.

Here's the scary part. I don’t know when I’ll be leaving, what organization to work with, the length of time I’ll stay or how I will have the funds to go and stay there.

What takes away my fears of the unknown though?

Faith in God.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

- Jeremiah 29:11

My calling is to go to Haiti. That has been made clear. I know everything will fall into place. Things will be revealed when the time is right. I will just keep striving to follow God’s path. 

What an adventure it has been so far. I'm excited to write about this pretty cool journey.
