Miranda Schreck

Hello!!!  My name is Miranda Schreck, and I am the Resident Director of Leslie Hall.  Here is a little blurb about who I am.   I completed my undergraduate studies at SBU, where I earned a degree in Sociology and Intercultural Studies.  After graduation I worked in the field of Social Work for five years. During this time I had the opportunity to work with several generations and populations.  I took great pleasure in my time as a social worker, however, my current position is undoubtedly the most exciting and enjoyable work I have done.

I am an adventurist at heart.  I also might have made that word up, but that’s kind of what adventurists are all about.  Right?  I love the outdoors, because the experience of a beautiful landscape allows me to see the Lord through his creation in a way that calms my soul. Additionally, I enjoy experiencing other cultures, and I am clinging to the hope that one day every tribe, tongue, and nation will bow before the King of Glory.

I take great joy in my work as a Resident Director, and I am amazed that I have been given the opportunity to live with and serve such amazing women.  Every day I see the beauty of our God through the eyes of the young women who live in this dorm.  I am reminded that he has created each person uniquely and with a purpose.  As the diversity within Leslie Hall reminds me of the creative nature of God, I also remember that each person was created in the image of God.  In Him we find our unity.  To find harmony that is derived from Christ is my understanding of a successful life lived within a Christian community.  This hope of unity is what draws me to living with the residents of Leslie Hall.
