What did you want to be when you were a child/ teenager? lawyer
Are doing your dream job?
I am definitely doing the mission part of my dream job--working with the people first hand. I want to extend my dream job into the law industry focusing on policy. There is no ONE dream job. My dream job entails much more..
What do you like MOST about what you do? What do you like the LEAST?
I love encouraging education, inspiring new moms to press toward the mark of the high calling, and being a living witness and inspiration that life with children does not stop your dreams.
Counseling and mentoring on the importance of relationships brings forth joy as well. It is tough at times to educate on the effects abortion and post abortion physically and mentally can have on a woman. However the center offers spiritual counseling to comfort and help those moms that have experienced this hardship cope from any guilt, shame, or other emotions that have cloudy them.
