About My Family
I was born and raised in central Pennsylvania. I have been married to my high school sweetheart, Michelle, for 28 years. I am the father of seven: Faith (26), Elizabeth (22), Brandt (21), Justin (21), Joseph (20), Morgan (20) and Kenny (17). We have been blessed to have had the privilege of adopting four of our seven kids.
We moved to Bradenton, Fla., in 2014 after serving at East Shore Baptist Church in Harrisburg, Pa., for 14 years. I enjoy spending time with my adult children and helping them move out. Michelle and I enjoy riding bikes together and doing projects around our home.

About My Ministry
Currently I serve as the corporate chaplain for PGT Innovations in Venice, Fla. Also, I serve on the staff of Woodland Community Church as the pastor of adult education. My ministry focus is on biblical counseling and financial coaching.
PGT offers a number of employee benefits that help team members in a time of financial need, and we have purposed to provide financial coaching to go along with these programs with the hope this will help bring about life-altering change in the lives of our team members. I also have the privilege of driving servant leadership training throughout PGT. I travel to all our locations—Miami, Orlando, Phoenix and Venice—and facilitate 21 Laws of Leadership for all our frontline leaders.
