Hi, Friend!

I’d love to help you go across the street and around the world—and mobilize others—with confidence, courage and lots of spiritual intentionality! I’m all about reaching the three billion people with LEAST ACCESS. So if you are too, stick with me and I’ll help you find your God-given role in this.

In my day job, I’m a strategist for an international organization that recruits, trains, and sends ordinary people to live overseas in fifty Muslim countries.

I’m also the author of Across the Street and Around the World: Following Jesus to the Nations in Your Neighborhood...and Beyond, published by my fabulous publisher Thomas Nelson Publishing.

I also offer The Neighbors & Nations Course twice a year—an eight-week, self-paced, digital course experience to help you offer Jesus and the Kingdom of God to the nations near you—with confidence, courage, and authenticity. My students are DOING. IT—making friends, sharing Jesus, praying with people, reading the Bible with them—and they’re not scared anymore because it’s genuine and natural.

I’m a natural-born champion of things I believe it. So, I’m also on the board of directors for Pathways to Global Understanding, a video-based training course and an instructor for Perspectives. Both of these are life-changing classes that will flip your worldview right-side up.  I speak other places every so often too.

A bit about my background:

I grew up in the Philippines as an expat, third-culture kid, until I came to the United States for a degree in Communications at Trinity International University. 

I know what it's like to find my global role starting right where I live, as God led me across the street right here in America to befriend international students, welcome refugees, work with community development non-profits, and serve a church mobilizing others to go to the nations.

Eventually, we moved as a family to live and work around the world in the colorful, chaotic country of India in an unreached, unengaged people group of ten million. 

My husband, four children, and I now live in Arizona, still having lots of adventures across the street and around the world together.
