I was born and raised in Santa Rosa, California, along with my 2 older brothers Mike & Bob. I graduated from Cardinal Newman Catholic High School in 1985. After high school, I attended UC Davis, graduating with a degree in Sociology. Tennis was a large part of my life. I both played and taught tennis for many years. In terms of my business career, I would have to say that I’ve been an entrepreneur all my life. I started my first software services company in 1993 followed by a software development company in 1996. Today I enjoy owning a real estate and mortgage brokerage company.
In terms of my spiritual background, I was raised Catholic. I first came to know the Lord on a personal level in 1996. I was baptized in Pleasanton, California in 2000. I was encouraged & supported through my spiritual journey by my wife, Rebecca, whom I’ve been married to for 12 years. Her huge heart for Jesus has been an ongoing inspiration to me.
We moved from California to Oregon in 2002, and were introduced to Grace Community Church by Rick and Debbie Seymour. Grace became our home church in 2002.
In 2007, a significant change took place in my spiritual journey, a change that is hard to explain in words. God created a need in my heart to seek a deeper commitment to Jesus, a deeper understanding of the word, and a stronger connection with other men. In 2007, Russ Bartels and I reignited men’s ministry at Grace, with a real passion and desire to build new relationships and become the spiritual leaders in our family.
Today, I am actively involved in the leadership of Grace, men’s ministry, financial growth team, assimilation and communication team, and teaching in my children’s 1st grade KIDMO class. It has been a pleasure working with the staff, ministry leaders, and other members toward one goal, Jesus.
My prayer is for every person at Grace to share in the joy and life transformation that can take place when Jesus comes into your heart, it happened to me, it can happen to all.
