What started as a summertime hobby—translating for mission teams in Honduras—became a lifelong calling. For nearly nine years, I’ve had the joy of serving with Sparrow Missions, and it has been one of the greatest blessings of my life to be part of what the Lord is doing in the Rancho Bonito community and the Sparrow Academy. Along the way, I’ve met people who have become lifelong friends, shaping my heart for ministry and deepening my passion for seeing lives transformed by the love of Jesus.

As God continued to guide my steps, He opened a new door for me to serve the unreached in Northern Thailand—specifically among the Hmong people. It has been incredible to walk alongside the Ross family, Pastor Ake, and Phîi Pai in church planting and to witness communities encounter the hope of Christ, some for the very first time. Each day reminds me of God’s faithfulness and the beautiful ways He continues to work beyond anything I could have imagined.
