Born and raised a country boy from the sprawling landscapes of Tennessee, my love for the great outdoors runs deep within my veins. For over two decades, I have had the distinct joy of serving at the Peninsula Rescue Mission (PRM). It has become a second home to me - a place where compassion and dedication intertwine to uplift those in need.
When I am not immersed in the hustle of the PRM office, you can often find me indulging in my passion for woodworking. There is an undeniable satisfaction in molding raw pieces of timber into intricate creations that both serve a purpose and exhibit beauty. You will also find me enjoying the incredible company of my beautiful wife and three wonderful boys.
The supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus is so real to me making Acts 4:12 one of my favorite verses.

When not in the office you may find me on the water. I love to sail, and spending time with my beautiful children who are growing so fast.
Since the Lord is my steady foundation, I find great comfort in Isaiah 41:10,13
