My Story:
I grew up in the church but never understood the gospel or the meaning of Jesus’ death; what his sacrifice and grace meant for me personally. The summer after my freshman year at Furman, I went to the Leadership Project with Campus Outreach, and it was there that the Lord called me to himself!

Art, coffee dates, reading, movies, getting sucked into reality tv, a good road trip, hanging out with the fam

My favorites:
yellow, Harper Lee, Gilmore girls, Anthropologie, big cities, organization and details, handwritten notes, tulips, Birmingham

What you probably didn’t know about me:
In the fourth grade my classroom was infested with ladybugs, and since then I have been irrationally afraid of them.
There are two ways my Alabama-ness comes out–I love riding in the back of pickup trucks and I hate wearing shoes.
I am obsessed with/addicted to Diet Coke
