For my Administration in College Student Affairs class I spent time putting my leadership philosophy (Kelley, 1992 & Mother Teresa, 1989) into writing. This statement reflects the leadership values that will guide and shape my actions in a variety of leadership positions.

As I live life with a small group of college students each semester I am keenly aware that they observe every action I make. This letter from a student affirms how I modeled my commitment to Christ and encouraged him in his own development and quest to follow Christ while he was a student at High Sierra.

Each semester I attempt to meet regularly with one or two women in a mentoring relationship (Parks, 2000). We agree to walk through life together for the course of the semester. These relationships are incredibly rewarding and life-giving for me. It is a wonderful gift to be able to ask questions, seek truth and spend time pursuing Christ together. I have found that often these relationships endure even after the semester has ended. Attached is a picture of one of the amazing women I have had the opportunity to mentor.
