My life is one that has been richly blessed. It began in Colorado Springs, Colorado nineteen years ago when I was born into a Christian family with a mother and father that loved the Lord and an older brother and sister. At a young age I asked Jesus into my heart. My family decided when I was eight to move to Fairbanks, Alaska and that is where I have lived ever since. I love the people here but I don't so much feel the same about the weather. My mom taught at Christian schools until I was in tenth grade so wherever she taught is where I attended. I had some amazing teachers that lead and discipled me to a strong faith in Christ and by the example they lived showed me what it meant to be a Christian leading me to a deeper walk with Him. I went on a week long missions trip to Mexico when I was 14 and there I felt that God gave me complete peace and contentment that I was doing exactly what He had created me to do. Although I don't know exactly what God has in store for me in the future I am eager to serve Him in whatever way is needed. I work as a certified nurse's assistant and got accepted into the nursing program and will begin that in Fall of 2008. This really is not even remotely close to a comprehensive biography but these are the main things that make me who I am today.
