I grew up primarily in the St. Louis Metro East when my parents were stationed at Scott AFB in 1994. Graduated Belleville East High School, Belleville, IL in 2002, and then ITT Technical Institute in 2008. Served in the United States Marine Corps Reserves, 3rd Battalion, 24th Marines out of Bridgeton, MO from 2003 to 2009. Worked full time as a Contractor-IT Specialist for the U.S. Air Force from 2006-2014.
I attended Eden Seminary, St. Louis from 2008 -2011, and ordained in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) in February 2014. I have served as Solo Pastor at Schoharie United Presbyterian Church, upstate New York from 2014-2017, and 1st Presbyterian Church, Monticello, Indiana from 2017-2019. I worked as a Hospital Chaplain with HSHS St. Elizabeth Hospital in O’Fallon, IL from 2019-2021, during the COVID 19 Pandemic. I completed Clinical Chaplaincy units at the Veterans Affair Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, MO, Albany Medical Center, Albany, NY, and HSHS. St. John’s Hospital, Springfield, IL. I was Board Certified as a Chaplain through the Association for Professional Chaplains (APC) in 2020. I also recently graduated from Louisville Presbyterian Seminary Doctor of Ministry Program in 2023, specializing in Pastoral Care and Counseling.
In addition to being the Pastor of John Calvin Presbyterian Church, I am also the newly elected Stated Clerk for the Presbytery of Giddings-Lovejoy, St. Louis, MO. I am also married to my wife, Lacy, 18 years to the day this past December. I have three daughters: Eliza (18), Evelyn (10), and Natalie (8). I love traveling anywhere and everywhere, and I especially love anything Culinary related (even aspiring to attend Culinary School). I also enjoy Jazz music and Irish Folk Music, currently learning Irish Uilleann Bag Pipes.
