The Next ChapterReflecting on My Azusa Pacific Journey
Stepping into my final year as APU’s president, I’m reminded of the moments, people, opportunities, and challenges that brought me to this point and helped shape my life. Azusa Pacific has been my home and my calling since I first arrived as a student in the ’70s. As I look back on the journey, and ahead to my next chapter, I invite you to explore the content below, which gives you a glimpse into some of my reflections, interests, and passions.
