I think Ouachita is amazing because:
Ouachita became a home away from home for me during my time as an international student. I have met some of the most influential people in my life here. OBU gives you the opportunity to become a better you through a strong academic structure and supportive faculty and staff. We’re all like family here and people know you by name.

Hobbies/Interests: I’m into visual art, specifically graphic design. I like reading, watching America’s Funniest Home Videos and being outdoors. I get excited about traveling, whether it’s a camping trip or a vacation overseas.

Family: My wife, Brooke, works in the communications department here at OBU. My parents live in Swakopmund, Namibia. I have one brother; he and his wife and baby girl live in Barcelona, Spain.
