Biography

I am the Director of Nursing and Global Health. I help to administer the nursing program and coordinate the implementation of new health-related programs. I am married and my wife and I have two sons.

Testimony

God has been looking over me since my early years. I did not start following Christ until my early twenties. It was at that time that I turned from a life in the fast lane to a life on the narrow path. My mentor challenged me to give all my talents to God and it paid off.

Verse

Proverbs 16:9
