About me :-)

Hey! I'm Keri and I'm 24 years old. I was born in Virginia, and, after moving more than 20 times, finally ended up here in California (and no, I'm not part of a military family, my mom just liked to move a lot! :-P ). I am an only child and was raised by my mother. God is the only Father I have ever known and I love Him so much! I love spending time with Him, especially through praise and worship and just hanging out with Him in His creation.
Right now I'm studying photography through a correspondence with the New York Institute of Photography, which I'm hoping to finish this year. I have a passion for photography and to use it for God's glory. I never thought I would go to an actual collage until a couple years ago. lol Out of nowhere, God put the desire to study in my heart. I believe He's pointing me towards languages, child development, and media to be used in missions. I took a few gen-ed. classes last year, and now have a grand total of 9 credits. My plan is to finish after the World Race, but we'll see where God leads!!

("We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps." ~ Proverbs16:9)
Some random facts:


I LOVE adventure, my last of which was bungee jumping 264 ft. off a bridge in Costa Rica!! Fun stuff! I'm hoping to take that to the next level and go sky diving sometime soon!
I speak a lot of Spanish...not fluent yet, but I can carry on a pretty good conversation :-)
God has given me a heart for kids!
Favorite foods: pineapple and chocolate
Favorite animals: horses and dogs
Favorite movies: Braveheart, Gladiator, and The Emperor's New Groove.
I lived in Costa Rica for a total of one year and loved it!
I LOVE music!! i began playing the guitar a couple years ago and absolutely love it. I still have a lot to learn though!

I just realized, i use waaay to many exclamation points...!
I've only been to 7 countries - all in Central America - and I'm totally psyched about that number increasing next year! ;-)
My hobbies include: travel and missions, reading in local coffee shops, photography, stargazing, baking, walking/hiking, hanging out with friends and worshiping God through music and dance!
