Though not a native Texan, I got here as fast as I could! Growing up in Virginia, I met my wife, Kelli, in high school. After graduating from Taylor University (Indiana) and working as a software programmer in St. Louis, I moved to Texas in 2005 to serve at Tejas Camp and Retreat, where I’m now the Executive Director. Kelli and I are blessed with five children (four boys and a girl) who keep us on our toes. We love volunteering in our church’s children’s ministry and serving with Feed the Need in La Grange. In my free time, I enjoy running, reading, traveling, and discovering new things. Serving as an Elder is a true blessing, and I’m passionate about seeing people connect with Jesus and be part of His story in our community.
