Hello! I'm so excited to share this special season of my life with you. I moved from India in 2022 to study at the University of North Texas, where I recently graduated with a degree in Data Analytics. Now, the Lord is leading me into a new chapter starting in August 2025, I will be serving as a Mission Insights & Analytics intern with Cru. In this role, I’ll be using my technical and analytical skills to support ministry efforts behind the scenes. By helping teams better understand data and make informed decisions, I hope to contribute to the spread of the gospel in an impactful way.
However, my primary goal during this internship is to engage in hands-on evangelism through weekly outreach programs on high school and college campuses. My heart is for people not only to believe in Jesus, but to experience a deep, personal relationship with Him and truly know His love, kindness, and grace.
Matthew 28:19-20 “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
I want to help many international students who are feeling lost, whether that’s emotionally, culturally, or spiritually. As someone who has walked that path myself, I understand the challenges they face. But more importantly, I believe God sees them, loves them, and desires to meet them right where they are. My desire is not just to support students practically, but to point them toward the One who gives true peace, identity, and purpose - Jesus Christ. Through this, I pray that their time in the U.S. becomes not just an academic journey, but a life-changing spiritual one.
Thank you so much for considering partnering with me - both through prayer and financial support. Your investment means more than you know, and I truly believe we are co-laborers in what God is doing through this mission. If you have any questions, thoughts, or would simply like to connect, I’d love to hear from you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out!
