Olivia Nelson

Campus Ministry Intern at VCU

Olivia is from Farmville, VA (the literal country!), so moving to a busy city to attend college was intentional. She will be earning her bachelor's degree in Applied Psychology from VCU this Fall. When she first came to VCU, she arrived with two friends, but thanks to CSF, she has now gained a community of about 30 friends. She loves helping build the same community that was built for her. When she's not meeting with students or spending time on campus, Olivia enjoys the peace and quiet of sitting by the James River or snuggling up at home with one of her kitties.

Amelia Helm

Campus Minister at ODU

Amelia grew up in Amherst, Virginia and then moved to Norfolk for college in 2021. She graduated from Old Dominion University in 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering.  It was through her involvement in Christian Student Fellowship as a student where she learned of her passion for college ministry.  She joined full-time CSF after she graduated.  When she isn’t hanging around ODU campus, you can find her at the local thrift stores or maybe in one of her running phases.  Amelia is thrilled to have the opportunity to share the joy of the Lord with students at her alma mater.

Katherine Stinnett

Director of Operations

Katherine lives in the Northern Neck, and is a preacher’s kid with a deep love for God and His kingdom. She has worked in ministry since 2020 and is passionate about creating systems that support CMOV staff and free them to focus on discipling students and building authentic community. Katherine is married Brandon, who has significantly better hair than hers, and is a dog mom to two pups. Whether working behind the scenes or connecting with others, her heart is always for loving God, loving people, and serving His mission.
