A little about me...
I was born and raised in the St Louis Metro Area. Growing up I slept under the pews at church and just tried to stay out of trouble. My favorite past time would have been to watch and play baseball with my grandpa. He taught me that there was always time to have a little fun. Family has always been a big part of my life and still remains a cornerstone for me today. I have built my life around two key elements, my family and my faith. Both of these have created the life I know today.
My family is of the utmost importance to me. My wife of 6 years has been my rock and truly is my better half. We met when I was just out of high school and we laugh today about it because it was definitely not love at first sight for her. Long story short, we ended up hanging around the same people at church and eventually our relationship began from there. Life hasn't always been easy, and we have definitely had our ups and downs; however God brought us through a lot and we are still together today only because of His grace...and hers. I can't forget about the strangest animal on earth either...Diesel our half basset, half lab that tends to steal the show often times.
I am currently the Student Pastor for ABLAZE Student Ministries at the Apostolic Revival Church in Highland, Ill. I absolutely love what I do, and couldn't think of anything better than to get to work with the incredible students that I do. God has blessed me to be where I am today. I will live the rest of my life knowing when He is first everything else will be okay.
