Tristan & Kendall Troftgruben, University of Wyoming, Interns
Kendall and Tristan graduated from the University of Wyoming a year apart, and after getting married on June 1st, 2026, they decided to begin their marriage by doing ministry together. As students, they were plugged into different campus ministries, Tristan with Campus Ventures and Kendall with Navigators, but they shared the same heart for the gospel and discipling others. That shared passion is what led them both to join staff with Campus Ventures. They also share a deep love for the outdoors. You can often find them climbing, biking, running, backpacking, skiing, or camping on any free day. By inviting students to experience these adventures in God’s creation with them, the door is opened to point them toward the One who made the very places where they play. Tristan and Kendall wouldn’t be who they are today without the people who mentored them, and they’re eager to be that kind of friend, mentor, and spiritual guide for the next generation.
