Courses
What can students expect from your classes?
I live what I teach and I believe that God can do great things in and through the lives of my students.
Family Information
My sisters and brother and their families live on the west coast. They are my favorite places for vacation and holidays.
Additional Information
One of my favorite Bible Verses:
“For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere.” (Psalm 84:10a, NRSV)
This verse contextualized to my own circumstance means
“A moment in God’s presence is better than a whole life without him.”
Dream
The day when I see my Savior face to face, when no one teaches his/her neighbor ‘Know the Lord,’ and when there is no tear, nor mourning, nor pain, nor death anywhere in the world.
Mentors/ Role models
I had a wonderful teacher, Prof. Michael V. Fox, who taught me what it means to be a teacher and scholar. He was a clear example of one walking extra miles repeatedly for his students as a teacher while never neglecting his work as a scholar. My aspiration is to become a teacher like him to my students.
