About My Family
I was born and raised in northeast Tennessee (Johnson City), before moving to the middle part of the state for college at Tennessee Tech University. I was saved at age 10 and through a mixture of the local church, campus ministry and a summer missionary training opportunity through GenSend, God used my time in college to call me into ministry.
After graduating with a degree in political science, I moved to Puerto Rico to serve in January of 2022. Depending on the season, you may find me watching Mets baseball, University of Georgia sports or studying for my next seminary exam. No matter the season, you can find me exploring a new part of God’s beautiful creation in Puerto Rico!
Above all, I desire to see the gospel spread, God to be exalted, and Jesus to be made much of. ¡Toda la gloria a nuestro Dios!

About My Ministry
I serve as a Compassion Ministry Catalyst with Send Relief Puerto Rico. We work alongside local churches to serve families and communities with great physical needs, many times stemming from hurricanes and earthquakes. Thousands of volunteer missionaries, for one week at a time, join us on this task to meet physical needs with the lifechanging hope of Jesus.
Primarily, my role is to train and equip these teams to live life on mission by meeting physical needs and sharing the hope of Christ in their local communities when they return home!
My prayer is that each team who serves here will leave with a deeper love for Christ and walk in obedience to Him. As that happens, I pray God opens their eyes to the hurting populations in their local communities. Above all, I pray that the gospel is spread, both in Puerto Rico and beyond.
