Background

About Raef Gerdes

I graduated Grand Canyon University with my bachelor’s degree in marketing as well as a minor in sports marketing. Since graduating GCU I’ve began working at NPHX Church full time doing videography and photography. Before coming to GCU, I was an intern at Abundant Life Church in Lee's Summit, Missouri for a little over a year and I helped them create video projects that were seen online and in the service on Sundays. These videos helped grow the church along with showing people what Abundant Life was all about. I played basketball for four years in high school and was team captain for three of those years.I believe I have an easily approachable personality and a hard work ethic. I was a walk-on for GCU so I’ve had to learn how to put others before myself as well as work hard to try and earn playing time as well as respect from coaches and players. I have a creative mindset and an open mind for learning anything that is thrown at me.
