Lead Pastor
I grew up in an a great church in San Jose, CA where I eagerly looked forward to Sunday mornings with my friends, youth events and time with the community. At 18, I started to date the woman who would become my wife, and while we were dating we decided to find a new church to call our own. That decision changed the direction of our lives as I quickly felt called to volunteer in the youth ministry, which became an internship, which became an offer for a full time job…
I went to San Jose State University for my undergraduate degree where I received my B.A. in studio art with an emphasis in teaching. I then attended and played soccer at Bethany University where I received my single subject teaching credential in art and a Master's in teaching.
My post-post graduate seminary work was accomplished at Western Seminary where I received a Graduate Studies Diploma in Biblical and Theological studies.
I have a twin brother, older brother and younger sister, and started dating my bride with a joke invitation to my senior prom because she was one of my best friend's older sister. My wife and I were married in 2005 and have four amazing kids. I grew up and played soccer through college, but am now an avid ice hockey fan and player. I also play guitar and love adventures. On some weekends you'll find me as a handyman and deck builder enjoying the process of creating or figuring things out. My favorite movie is "Inception." If money weren't an object, I'd love to travel throughout Europe exploring both historical sites and the natural beauty and local food.... and then spend a month (or six) relaxing on the beaches of somewhere tropical...
