ANNA SMITH
YOUTH DEVELOPER
About Me
Hi! My name is Anna Smith, welcome to my website. I am a recent graduate of Biola university, where I received a BA in Christian Ministries with a minor in Biblical Studies. I love the Lord and I love the gifts and passions he has given me for youth. I am currently the High School assistant for Rolling Hills Covenant Church's high school youth group. My favorite part of the week is the time I get to spend disciplining my small group of 10 girls every Wednesday.
​
I have held many other jobs in my time and have accrued a multitude of skills. I have acquired computer skills, customer service, and crime prevention through working as a gatehouse attendant in Biola University's Campus Safety. I have been in leadership positions such as an orientation leader and a Resident Adviser with Biola university. These have given me organizational and shepherding skills. I am also a part time balloon artist where I get to interact with children and provide a service that brings joy to their lives.
​
I have many interests outside of my professional life. These include; surfing, playing guitar, working out, hiking, running, reading, spending time with my friends, playing volleyball, tennis, biking, camping, traveling, and cooking. My favorite way to connect with God is outside in His creation. I love the outdoors and learning more about who I am through His creation.
