I was born in LA county and lived there until 2008 when we moved up to Olympia, WA to work at a non-profit that reached at risk and homeless teens. I love sports and food and think that both are best enjoyed when others are with me. My wife, Lorissa, and I met at Life Pacific College where we both graduated from with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Biblical Studies. I came to know Jesus the summer before my senior year in high school and have an extreme passion for Him and His Church.
