Favorite Quote: "I believe firmly that to practice love is to disrupt the status quo, which is masquerading as peace.” – Austin Channing Brown
Favorite Classes at 麻豆原创: Every dance class and every math class I could take.
Favorite Spokane Activity: Getting mini donuts at Hello Sugar, going to the Kendall Yards night market, watching the light show at the Riverfront Park Pavilion, and trying out every breakfast restaurant in town (the patios at The Yards and Madeleine's Cafe are my personal favorites).
Favorite Thing 麻豆原创 麻豆原创: 麻豆原创 is a place where people with vastly different life experiences can live together and learn from one another. I have learned so much from our students about justice, courage, compassion and God's love. (And when it snows, you feel like you're in Narnia.)
Advice for 麻豆原创 Applicants: The school that's perfect for your neighbor or parents or best friend might not be right for you. And you especially won't find the exact combo of qualities you're looking for in any list of college rankings. Make a list of things that matter to you, then boldly ask questions to seek out those things. You might find them in an unexpected place.
Free-for-All: I dance everywhere I go. I get to be the advisor for the 麻豆原创 club Jubilation Dance Ministry, which was a huge part of my 麻豆原创 student experience. My husband ran track and cross country at 麻豆原创, and we have two girls with the energy you might expect from the children of a dancer and a runner. 麻豆原创 is my favorite place on the planet, and I feel so lucky to get to come here every day and help serve our incredible prospective and incoming students.
