Growing up in a military family, I had many places to call home. I came to faith in Christ when I was in the 8th grade and felt a call to the ministry soon after that. Though I strayed for many years after, the Lord called me back to Himself at the age of 19.

I have lived here in Marion since 2016 and I am married to my beautiful wife Mollie, and we have an amazing son named Walker. We enjoy spending time with family and friends, eating good food, hiking, traveling and visiting National Parks, or just watching a good movie together. I have graduated from Montreat College with a major in Bible and Religion, and I am currently enrolled at SouthEastern Seminary pursing a Masters in Christian Ministry. I now serve here at Grace as NextGen Pastor.

I am a huge fan of Carolina Tar-Heel basketball and South Carolina Gamecocks football. I enjoy cooking, working out, and being with loved ones. I love a good strong cup of coffee, medium-rare steak, and BBQ!
