Justin Hoffer (he/him)

Justin is a senior at Utah State University majoring in Data Analytics and is excited to be returning as a youth counselor for Belong. He served his mission during the pandemic in both Ghana and Tempe, Arizona, and brings an understanding of what it means to navigate the intersection of faith and identity. Justin knows firsthand how challenging the journey of being gay in the LDS Church can be, and he truly wants to help LGBTQ youth feel seen, supported, and hopeful. His wish is that everyone leaves this conference with more love for themselves and a renewed sense of peace on their spiritual path. When he’s not studying or working, you can find Justin playing pickleball, skiing, hosting game nights, battling it out on League of Legends, or hanging out with his family.
