- Why Cedarville: My own education at Cedarville has equipped me to provide care in a variety of settings. I am privileged to be able to work with mentors who taught and inspired me and allow students to see what their career can do in the life of a family and a community. I enjoy teaching students to care for the whole person, to learn and provide spiritual care, and placing students in areas of influence in their clinical practice sites.
