Let us introduce you to this episode's special guests:
Jessica Williams is an Admissions Counselor at Southern Adventist University. For 13 years she taught Bible at Loma Linda Academy, and was heavily involved in the planning of SECC’s Junior-Senior Bible Conferences and One Life Retreats. During her time at LLA, she was also a pilot teacher and contributor to the NAD Encounter High School Bible Curriculum. Jessica earned a B.A. in Theology and Religious Education from Southern Adventist University in 2005 and a M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction from La Sierra University in 2018. In her spare time she enjoys travelling, snowskiing, spending time with family and friends, being active in the great outdoors, and curling up with a good book on a rainy day.
Harold Carvajal is a sophomore at Southern Adventist University. He was born in Paterson, New Jersey, but has lived in Cocoa, Florida since he was 6 years old. He is currently majoring in Finance, with the goal of working for SpaceX after he graduates. He is 18 years old, and will be turning 19 in May. Harold enjoys the outdoors greatly, so anything that deals with nature usually captures his interest. Since he has lived near the water for most of his life, many of his hobbies and interests deal with water and aquatic life. He loves to go swimming, fishing, and boating whenever he can while in Florida. However, while he is here in Tennessee, he does a lot of photography and hiking around the campus during his spare time. He also does a lot of longboarding whenever he gets a chance to. He enjoys going on road trips and exploring different places. He also loves learning about new cultures and new languages. Currently, he only knows Spanish and English, but has a goal of studying Italian over the summer.
