Bio:
Caitlin started volunteering with the bus in 2003, and came on full time staff in April 2010. She studied photography in the US and abroad in Greece, resulting in a BA in Art and an affinity for Greek coffee. She has traveled doing photography and/or missions to 10 countries and 43 states. Caitlin had a lot of exciting plans for her life before she got ambushed by God and gave them all up! Caitlin counts it full joy to be able to love the poor, homeless, and broken on the streets.
What I Do With The Relief Bus:
I take photos, shoot video, design things, and otherwise work to communicate our mission and stories from the street. I get to go out on the bus regularly to practically share the love God has shown to me. Many times when I am out on the bus, I have my camera in tow so I can capture both the pain on the streets and the beauty of God at work in individual lives. I also spend a lot of time with the many short-term missionaries that come to work with the bus.
