Member of Leadership Development Program at Athens Church; intern with student ministry division at Athens Church; graduating summa cum laude with HDFS degree and CFLE certification  

Why I chose my major

I have a huge passion for helping families thrive and succeed! I love the way God designed the family and aspire to support and guide families to know and enjoy the love Jesus has for them. HDFS was the perfect major to prepare me to do this! 

What I like most about FACS

FACS has always been a safe and welcoming environment for me throughout college. Every professor has cared deeply about me as a person, not just as a student. FACS has made UGA feel more personable and supported me throughout my three years here.   

Post-graduation plans

I will be continuing to work in ministry and applying to attend seminary next spring!
