I was born in the Chicago area, but I grew up around Hudson Ohio. I grew up very involved in the church and I was in Christian schooling for about 20 years. I felt called to ministry since when I was 10 years old. I ran from the call for a little while, but when I was in middle school God used some men ahead of me to show me how amazing He is. He grabbed my heart and it has been quite the journey chasing after Him since then. I have seen God and his goodness leading me through so many different seasons. I have been leading worship in different settings for the past 9 years and have been able to see God’s hand in so many different ministries. He is so much bigger than we could ever imagine. I am married to my lovely wife Katie (who I met here at Redemption) and we are so excited to be doing ministry together, loving and serving the church. I love hanging out with people, playing music, movies, kayaking, hiking, and I’m kind of a foodie (Hibachi is the way to my heart).
