Creative Arts Director

I met my wife last year while living in Maui. We became engaged on the island and got married in southern California in October of 2006. After the honeymoon we packed up a rental car and moved here to Bend, just cause! We moved here without knowing anyone, we didn't own a vehicle, we had zero hookups, and no sweet jobs. It was a step of faith in our new life together and we couldn't be more stoked about what God is doing here in Bend!

How I became a Christian:  I grew up in a solid Christian family who was very involved in ministry.  Following a school chapel, I questioned my mom and came to know the Lord through her leading.

Favorite Memory:  When I was younger my parents owned land in the Pudget Sound on the San Juan Islands.  We would spend our days, camping, clam digging, fishing and crabbing!

What music style are you listening to these days:  Anything old gospel, bluegrass sounding and alternative country bands, such as Ryan Adams

Favorite Food:  Kettle Corn

Favorite Movie:  Forrest Gump

I would love to meet:  I would like to meet Nate & Sam from the band, The Format

Family Stats:  Married to Courtney since October 2006

Education:  BS in Christian Ministries, BA in Graphic Arts

Areas of Antioch you’re excited about:  I am excited about developing and using the creative arts to bring the gospel to life in a modern way.
