Meet JC Trombley!

Hometown: West Lafayette, IN

Occupation: Motion Graphics Designer

How did you get involved in Young Life? I first went to Young Life during a “kidnap” club during high school. Later during college, I was re-exposed to Young Life through the leader perspective and was able to better understand how the ministry is geared towards helping high school students.

Why Tech? I taught art at Tech for a year and saw a need in students lives for a program like Young Life. After hearing that others wanted to start the program, I knew that I wanted to be involved. I envisioned that Young Life could be successful on the Tech campus. Even though I don’t teach there anymore, this is a great way for me to stay connected to the students and share the Gospel.

What would people be surprised to know about you? I LOVE hockey! Go Blackhawks.

Hobbies: Watching movies, drawing, playing XBOX 360

What are you excited about?: Our new leaders.

What are you listening to on your I-Pod? Relient K and Lupe Fiasco

Hometown: Newburgh, IN

Occupation: Part Time Staff with Young Life!!! And Mommy to Luke (3) and Emerson (9 months)

How did you get involved in Young Life? In high school, my dance coach invited me to a Young Life club and I have been involved ever since! God used Young Life and my amazing leaders to teach me about having a relationship with Jesus. I was also a YL leader at IU when I was in college. Then a friend invited me to join the Tech committee a few years ago.

Why Tech? I taught math for 5 years at Tech in the Academy of Creative Expression. The student's are awesome and will really benefit from having Young Life on campus. They need consistent people in their lives who will share the Gospel with them.

What would people be surprised to know about you? I LOVE scary movies (especially the Scream trilogy)!

Hobbies: Reading, Scrapbooking, Cooking (NOT baking), Movie nights with my best friend/husband JC, and playing with my kiddos.

What are you excited about?: Seeing how God moves at Tech High School.
