I was born in Texas and have lived in multiple states, but I call Louisiana and Georgia my 2 homes. I received my undergraduate degree from McNeese State University in Lake Charles, LA in 2001, then completed a Master of Divinity in 2006. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. and hope to finish before Jesus comes back. I have worked in ministry roles in the past as a youth minister, in activities ministry, and as a lead pastor. I serve as a part-time Chaplain at Piedmont Hospital in Columbus. I am coming to CCC after working full time in the corporate world where God has taught me some of the many skills that it takes to fill my role at CCC. I am married to Jennifer, and we have 6 wonderful kids: Ethan, Ellie, Emmaline, Benjamin, Liliana, and Emily. I am joining the staff on January 1, 2022.
