Staff Spotlight:
Tori Guilford
Hi! My name is Tori Guilford and I joined the Harris Creek staff team over the summer, but I’ve been a part of Harris Creek since January 2019. I’m originally from the Chicago suburbs, went to Taylor University in Indiana for college, then came to Baylor for grad school and never left! Prior to Harris Creek, I worked for Baylor Admissions and Magnolia’s HR team.
College was such a formational time for me in my own faith – from community that helped me love and know Jesus more, to experiencing the grace Jesus has for me. My time in Waco has taught me even more about the value of community and the importance of investing in the church body. I am so excited to jump into community with the College Team, walk with college students as they pursue Jesus, and continue in the work that God has already been doing through the Harris Creek College ministry! It’s already been such a joy to serve here!
