I'm 29 years old. A Christ-follower. LMFT-Candidate, counselor/coach.
Chronically single - until Feb 10, 2018 when I married my Love.
I have a passion for using writing to spread a message of faith, love, and healing to young people across the country. Much like everyone else, I have always dabbled in a lot of things.

Quiet Ache
Many days, being single is no big deal for me. Actually, it's kind of nice.I love that I get to fill my school and work schedule, and spend time on my friends and family, without thinking I am neglecting someone. I can pick up and go on a weekend trip, or a trip to Oklahoma, … Continue reading Quiet Ache

The White Stag
When I get a C.S. Lewis book in my hands, my heart melts a little. Fiction or non-fiction. Ancient lands to Contemporary London to the space between Heaven and Hell. I love his works, his words, and the heart behind them all. But, my favorite place in his stories? Narnia. (I bet you saw that … Continue reading The White Stag

Confidence
In my last post, "Don't dress stupid", I quoted a line from the most recent HIMYM:"The real challenge is walking up to a [girl] I've never met before and somehow talking to her with words from my mouth..."Exactly...When I'm with my friends or coworkers, I often find myself saying, "yeah, and I'm the quiet one … Continue reading Confidence
