Georgia. We are currently ministering on the campuses of Georgia Tech, Kennesaw State, and Morehouse, Spellman and Clark. We also serve as trainer coaches in the Blue Ridge region of Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. Our goal is to help younger staff be successful in ministry. Our passion is to help others "to know Christ, make Him known, and help others do the same."

Tricia is beginning her journey as a Navigators Staff in Training at Georgia Tech! She moved to Atlanta in 2007 and has spent her years investing in young women through developing college-aged staff at WinShape Camps, leading small groups of recently graduated women, and discipling female students at Georgia Tech. It has been both her calling and a dream of hers to get to do this full time!
