She volunteered with Bridges International, a campus ministry focused on serving international students; studied abroad in Santiago, Chile; and taught a class to freshman students.

While in Waco, she was involved with Harris Creek Baptist Church, serving in the children’s ministry and mentoring college student small group leaders.

She met her future husband, Kyle Drott, a Whitehouse native, while attending Baylor Law.

In November of last year, Drott graduated from Baylor Law School and received the honor of being the “Highest-Ranking Student” in her graduating class.
