  • was my first real friend here at PLU and I cannot explain how proud I am of him. He went from preparing for the 2012 Major League Baseball draft to chemotherapy.

It found me my closest friends and developed the courage to always stand up for what’s right … even if you’re the only one. My heart is filled with joy for what the WC continues to offer and provide the PLU community at large. To this day, when I am asked what job shaped me the most, my answer is easy.
