About

MacKenzi is a 2020 graduate of University of Louisiana at Lafayette with a BA in Political Science and concentration in Pre-Law. She grew up on a ranch in Southwest Louisiana, and is the oldest of five children. MacKenzi first encountered the Culture Project through social media via Facebook videos and felt immediately drawn to their mission of affirming human dignity, while spreading a message of love, beauty, and hope. This all lead her to answer the call she felt Christ put on her heart to give a year of her life to serve others as a Culture Project missionary. "I became a missionary so that I could affirm others in their goodness, and show them that living a life in accordance with the Church allows you to be fully alive."
