About me
Husband | Follower of Christ | Servant in Ministry | Administrative Assistant | Certified Piano Technician | Web Developer | Mountaineer | Low Brass Enthusiast
I’m a husband first, and much of what I do flows from a desire to serve the Lord faithfully in both life and ministry. Over the years, God has allowed me to wear several different hats, from serving in church ministry and assisting behind the scenes, to working professionally as an insurance agent, Certified Piano Technician, and web developer. Each role has shaped my perspective on people, responsibility, and stewardship.
My heart is planted in faithful, biblical ministry, with a strong emphasis on clear, expository preaching and practical service within the local church. Alongside my professional work, I enjoy music deeply — you’ll often find a tuba nearby. I enjoy mountaineering and try to summit at least one mountain each year. Whether in ministry, business, or everyday life, my goal is simple: to work with integrity, serve others well, and make Christ known through both word and example.
Education
In 2024, I earned a B.S. in Secondary Education, majoring in History with a minor in Theology, that helped shape both my academic foundation and ministry preparation. I am currently working toward a Master of Divinity (M.Div.), continuing to pursue deeper theological training for the future.
Current Work
I also work part-time as a Certified Piano Technician, offering tuning and technical piano services. Music has always been a big part of my life, and this allows me to stay connected to it in a practical way.
