My wife Sue and I are originally from the Cleveland, OH area, but we have lived in the valley since 1987. We have two adult children, Shannon and Steven, as well as a couple furry family members, Hashtag our dog, and a cat named Stella.

We have loved serving and leading at Chaparral over the past several years in our Small Group and the various ministries we partner with like Harvest Compassion Center and Family Promise.
When I am not at church, I serve as the Director of Technical Operations for iHeart Media’s 24/7 News Source – NBC News Radio.  On the side, I have a real estate business and other roles that have blessed me with opportunities to meet and serve people from all walks of life.
