I love students and seeing them meet God in transformative ways. I have been on staff with InterVarsity for 20 years. I envision every campus with a nursing program and a Nurses Christian Fellowship where students can meet Jesus at the intersection of their faith and vocation. I live in the Madison, Wisconsin, area with my husband and children; as a family, we like to adventure (camping, traveling, and exploring) together. I read, knit, and hang out with friends.
