Anna loves being part of developing & leading meaningful, Christ-centered mission experiences where people feel known, encouraged, and challenged to grow. As a former collegiate volleyball player, she enjoys walking alongside teams and mentoring student-athletes as they step faithfully into what God has for them.
She serves as the Assistant Director of a collegiate program that supports young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, walking with students as they grow in independence, build life skills, explore internships, and fully participate in a Christ-centered campus community. Her work in this setting, including recently helping lead a mission trip to Peru with Joni & Friends, has strengthened her desire to make missions accessible and transformative for every student. She is also completing her master’s in social work, strengthening her ability to care for people well and to see the bigger picture of how communities flourish.
Anna is married to Ethan and they love life with their beloved rescue dog, Frankie. Some of Anna’s favorite things include enjoying a good cup of coffee, hunting for thrifted treasures, traveling to new places, chasing sunsets, and fitting in a CrossFit workout whenever she can.
