McKenzie is incredibly hard working, supportive, a 100% girls girl, and the life of the party. She has been so encouraging and helpful to Patrick and I, and I am so excited to have her as a future sister!

Maya and I have been roommates for 2 years and she means everything to me! Not only do we live together, but we are in the same major, classes, and work together too. (we just can't get enough of each other). She is incredibly selfless, kind, and such a light to be around!

Amber is my long-time, childhood friend. We met in church when we were 8 years old and have been friends ever since! She is creative, adventurous, loyal, and selfless. I'm so thankful to have grown up with a forever friend like her!

Emmerson and I met freshman year in our dorm hall. Being engaged in the same season has brought us much closer than we ever thought, and I am so thankful for her! She is brilliant, hard-working, and resilient, but incredibly humble and kind.

Emily and I met through a mutual friend at choir camp, but working alongside her has brought us infinitely closer. She is a ball of sunshine - always laughing and smiling and helping others do the same. Having her in my life is such a joy!

Gemma and I met in our freshman year from our hall, and now we are in nursing school together! She is hilarious, down-to-earth, and extremely supportive. I can always count on Gemma to say yes to spontaneity and bring the good vibes and fun to any occasion!
