Life & Ministry Update 2025

Hi friends! I’m rapidly approaching the end of my senior year at the University of Southern California! In May, I’ll graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies, but I’m sticking around for one more year to wrap up my master’s in the USC Games program.

Thank you to all who supported me monetarily or prayerfully on my 10K last year or my trip to Germany in 2023! In addition to my 2025 ministry update, please scroll down to see summaries of God’s work as I observed it.

Thon 2025 — Round 2!

This year, the college ministry I serve with at the University of Southern California, Christian Challenge, is sending nine people overseas for summer missions! Teams are going to Japan and Portugal, both buying up opportunities to serve our ministry partners that are spreading the Gospel in these regions. Two of my friends I serve alongside in helping our freshmen Bible study are going on trips this summer! And Nick, a teammate from my trip, is leading the trip to Portugal! Very exciting!

These are similar to the mission trip I went on back in 2023 and are as much a teaching experience for those who go as it is for the people abroad! (I suspect it may be more impactful on the people who go—lots of humbling goes on!)

Much like last year, I am participating in a 10K to raise money for missions! I am also fundraising, which is most likely how you came to this page! If you are looking for opportunities to be generous, I would love you to sponsor me. In the past, this has looked like either pledging an amount per kilometer or a total sum. The proceeds go entirely towards these three trips.

Behind the scenes of my trip two years ago, this same Thon fundraiser supported our fundraising. No obligation, but if you are interested, scroll on!
