Dara was born and raised in the great city of Hampton, Virginia. Growing up on the coast gave Dara a deep love for the ocean and for all things outdoors. In her free time, she enjoys going to the beach, hiking, or having good conversations with friends. She is always down to learn a new skill or try a new adventure.
Dara graduated from Regent University in the spring of 2022 with a bachelor’s degree in Business Management and American Government. Through her time at Regent, she gained a deep appreciation for business and administration.
After attending her first State Class in 2015, Dara was deeply impacted by the TeenPact program. She saw the love of the Lord displayed through the staff and fellow students at the class, and that encouraged her to seek the Lord more intentionally. From there, her relationship with the Lord grew immensely. Dara is passionate about telling others about the good news of Jesus Christ and is very excited to do that in her new role as the Staff Development Coordinator.
