Summary

I have always desired to lead people into a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ through reading, prayer and acts of faith. After getting married in August of 2013, my wife and I volunteered as youth sponsors and have continued to serve in various roles both in church and in our personal lives to disciple others. Even while working at Pinebrook I seek opportunities to share my faith. I am currently leading a Bible study at the Jiu Jitsu school I attend and am mentoring a fellow co worker. The career that God has blessed me with has also allowed me to serve as a Deacon at my current church. Looking back I am thankful for the path that God has had me travel to this point in my life, even in the days where I wanted to flee construction work to pursue ministry. I have learned to be content and to serve God in whatever position I am holding.
