I am originally from Cleveland Ohio and have lived in Lithia since 2003. I am a graduate of Purdue University with a degree in wildlife management.

While working as a wildlife biologist for the state of Florida, I received my call to become a pastor and completed the Vineyard Institute in 2014 and was ordained in 2016.

Married to my wife Barb and a father of two boys, I have a passion for adult discipleship and small groups. I also love to help people discover their gifts and purpose.

Barb and I own several small businesses and have a passion for the outdoors, camping, fishing and hiking. Above all else, I am excited for all God has in store for me as I serve my family, church, and community.
