About My Family

I was born and raised in the vibrant city of Las Vegas, Nev., where my journey with Christ began at the age of 5. By the time I was 12, I knew without a doubt that my life’s purpose was to preach the gospel. After attending Bible college in California, I pursued my Master of Divinity degree at Southwestern Seminary in Texas. There I met the love of my life, Madison, a Georgia native with a heart as warm as the southern sunshine.

After serving as a student pastor in both Texas and Nevada life brought us to Georgia, where I stepped into the role of senior pastor. Now, we’re blessed with two incredible kids—Jefferson (5) and Eloise (3)—who keep us laughing and on our toes every day.

About My Church Plant

I became the senior pastor of Calvary Baptist Church of Lilburn, Ga., in May 2022. In the spring of 2024, we voted to rebrand our church and in fall and relaunched as Church on a Hill. Perched on the highest hill in our city, the heart of our replant is to be a light for Lilburn for the gospel of Jesus. Our mission is to help people find truth and experience mercy in Jesus.

NAMB Church Planting

Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.

Pray

Pray for boldness to share the gospel and open hearts among the people to whom the missionary speaks. Pray that through this ministry, more people would come to saving faith and live on mission. Pray for stamina and longevity for ministry amidst attacks from the enemy.
