What advice or encouragement would you give to younger students at Westminster? Don’t take life too seriously, let go of excess self consciousness and remember that everyone really is just a human who also wants to be good enough. Not everyone will like you and that’s okay; as long as you love the Lord and love everyone the way He does (no exceptions), you are doing all right.

Please share a funny memory or highlight from your time at Westminster (do not use an inside joke. Make this something that everyone who reads this would understand): In 7th grade there was an empty cabinet in back of the classroom that one or 2 people could fit inside. Before class, someone might “go to Narnia” and a little while later, pop out during the lesson, yapping about Mr. Tumnus.

Senior Thesis Title: The Transgender Lie 

Senior Thesis Statement: Supporting transgender ideology negatively affects our society, children, and transgender people themselves.

Brief Description of Senior Thesis: The Bible does not support transgenderism. Though most people think it is not mentioned in the Scriptures, the wisdom of the Bible is reflected in the data and personal testimonies that show the harmful effects that Transgender ideology has on our society. Transgenderism and the ideologies that come with it affect most everyone, and it is a bigger player in our culture than it seems to be.  We should, therefore, all be knowledgeable and intentional with what we think, say, and do regarding this topic.

Post Graduation Plans: To double major in dance and English at the University of Memphis.

Favorite Bible Verse: “You have turned my mourning into dancing; you have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness” (Psalm 30:11)

Prayer Request: For wisdom and that the Lord will use me to share the Gospel through dance.
