How did your Moravian experience prepare you for your career? 

My Moravian experience prepared me to practice clinical counseling, and I received specific training in spiritually integrated/pastoral counseling, which is excellent preparation for supporting clients with coping with relationship challenges and working through grief. During my clinical internship, I really realized how well the program had prepared me for the experience. In talking with student interns from other programs, I became even more grateful for the support Moravian's program gave me during process, from placement to helping me through internship both professionally and even spiritually.

Share a memorable Moravian moment from when you were a student. 

After my thesis defense, my professors interacted with me as a peer/colleague which gave me a deep feeling of gratitude and helped me see how much I had grown during my journey at Moravian.

Thank You

I am grateful for your financial support over the course of my studies at Moravian. It gave me the opportunity to focus on my studies and clinical internship while maintaining a healthy family/work balance, which is so important to success. I felt so supported. I hope to one day follow your kind and generous example by helping a next generation of Moravian students succeed just like you have done for me.
