Why Cedarville
While living in New York City, I found several doors closed as the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted many of the opportunities and ministries I was involved in. After a season of prayer and seeking God's will, He led me to Cedarville University. Looking back, His timing and provision were unmistakable. It is a joy to invest in students as they grow as artists, designers, and followers of Christ, equipping them to faithfully serve Him and reflect the hope of the Gospel through their vocations and in their communities.
