Who I Am

My name is Larkin Shaw. I am a sophomore at Clemson majoring in elementary education.
My life is made up of a variety of activities and interests, but before I tell you about that, I want to mention the most important part of my life. Accepting the saving grace, forgiveness, and love of my Savior Jesus Christ was the most important decision I ever made. I became a Christian when I was seven, and my life has been a constant journey to become a better reflection of His love on this world ever since. I am human and I fail at that goal daily but I know I am covered by His grace and mercy. I would love to share more about this great love I have found to anyone who is curious because my Jesus wants you to know it too.
I am involved in various activities at Clemson. I am part of FCA here at Clemson. My roommate and I lead a Bible study of freshmen and sophomore girls. I am also involved in Central Spirit. We support our student athletes and try to promote all different types of athletic events to the students on campus.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading (although that doesn't happen much during the school year), running (I ran cross country in high school and I'm trying to get back into it), painting, and spending time hanging out with my roommates and friends. I also enjoy sports, especially playing and watching basketball and watching college football. Go Tigers!
My family is also very important to me. I am blessed to have parents who love me and love each other. I also have a younger brother who is seventeen and plays football for our high school team. I enjoy hanging out with him.
This is just a little about me. Get to know me to find out more!

You are absolutely correct that one's faith is a tremendous part of who one is! I am looking forward to working with you this semester! Kudos to you for getting back into running... very difficult to take something like that back up after you give it up!
