About R.A.W. Encounters

a revivalist, life coach, author, and the founder of RAW Encounters Ministries and UNplanned Parenthood Prolific Project. Born and raised in the Southwest, my life’s mission is rooted in a deep passion to see people experience true healing, lasting freedom, and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit.

The vision for RAW Encounters was revealed through a dream and birthed in prayer—something God placed on my heart as a response to the pain, healing, and restoration I’ve walked through myself. It’s not just a program; it’s a calling. I’m honored to guide others into deeper intimacy with Jesus and help them step boldly into their God-given identity and Kingdom purpose.

With a background in clinical psychology and years of ministry experience as an ordained associate pastor, I’ve come to understand both the emotional and spiritual needs people carry. I believe that when faith and practical tools come together, real transformation happens. My heart beats for the broken, the bound, and the overlooked—and my greatest joy is watching lives be restored by God’s love.

Having personally overcome sickness, trauma, and abuse, I stand as living proof of God’s redeeming power. Every scar tells a story, and every victory is a reminder that no one is too far gone for God's grace.

Whether serving in local outreach, supporting prison ministries, empowering families in need, or discipling leaders, my calling remains the same: to raise up others into their full potential in Christ.

Thank you for visiting—my prayer is that you’ll not only be inspired here, but also deeply encouraged to pursue the healing, freedom, and purpose God has for you.
