In the gambling world, going “all in” means risking everything you’ve got on one hand. Either you win big, or lose everything. There are plenty of ways to navigate this life and my choice is to live big, go all in, and be generous. I have many roles which include the following: husband, father, son, friend, pastor, entrepreneur, domain investor, web enthusiast, missionary, and more.

I am devoted to following Jesus wherever he leads me. Thus far He has led me to some pretty crazy places, pretty crazy adventures and the adventure continues. I have traveled the world drilling water wells, planting churches, and preaching the gospel in a multitude of places: India, Singapore, Honduras, Peru, Germany, Italy, France, Hong Kong, Belarus, Russia, Mexico, and all over the United States. I was the lead pastor of an incredibly authentic community in Scottsdale, AZ called E3 Church for 10 years. Then I merged our church and became the XP of a multi campus church for 11 years. I enjoyed building systems and structures to support the mission of the local church.

In January of 2024, I stepped into a new role as Managing Director of Church Advancement for a discipleship focused SaaS platform called The StudioC. We help hundreds of churches to create engagement, personalized connection and messaging to every individual in their church, with the goal of caring and coaching for them in discipleship steps.

My life is richer because of mentors and good friends. I love my family and have an amazing wife of 25 years who keeps me grounded, focused and continually reminds me to stop and smell the roses. Our story is pretty crazy, and one that I cherish. We have 3 beautiful children (16, 19, 22) and more than anything I love being their father.
