My name is Addison Markwell and I am a Junior studying Math at Oregon State University. I am the oldest of five children, along with two dogs and two cats at my house in Northwest Portland. During the academic year, I live in Corvallis where I go to classes and usually spend my spare time in the Newman Center. Some of my hobbies include hiking, camping, spending time with family, playing the guitar, writing, and painting. If I’m not doing one of these things, odds are I’m relaxing in the library with a cup of tea and a book.

I chose Totus Tuus because I want to help children foster a passionate love for Christ and Mary at an early age, that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Additionally, I want to continue to grow in my faith and I believe that Totus Tuus will truly help me to do this
