Andrew Barber

Andrew Barber

Campus Minister

Andrew is a graduate of the University of South Carolina where he had a wonderful RUF experience in undergrad and met his wife, Jessica.  He attended Covenant Seminary in St Louis before going on to teach English at a boarding school in Stony Brook, NY for 9 years (ask him for stories sometime!).  He is now the CM for RUF at Northwestern and loves his time teaching, preaching, and trying to find more students to introduce to racquetball.  Andrew and Jessica have 4 kiddos, and they love being near the Chicago Cubs.

Grace Mautz

Grace Mautz

Intern

Grace is from Delafield, WI, and graduated from the University of Madison, Wisconsin with a double major in Real Estate and Management & Human Resources. Grace found a great community and fun times through RUF at UW-Madison! She is thrilled to continue her experience with RUF at Northwestern University! Grace grew up on National Geographic’s Weird But True book series and Eggo waffles. She enjoys running, exploring the outdoors, learning new things, and eating a substantial breakfast.

Jack Peterson

Intern

Jack is a proud Texan, born and raised in Dallas. He attended Wake Forest University for college, where he double majored in Philosophy and Classical Languages. During his time at Wake, RUF blessed Jack with rich friendships and opened his eyes to Christ's love for the outsider. He is super excited to continue his journey with RUF at Northwestern and to see the LORD at work outside of the Bible-belt South. Jack loves running, reading, classical music, college football, Lord of the Rings, chess, the Avett Brothers, and wearing socks with Crocs.
