After graduating from TMU in 2006, I went on to intern at a church in Colorado Springs, which led to my first youth ministry position in Columbia, Missouri. I spent two years in that position and often thought that my counseling degree had well equipped me for the role. After working in youth ministry, the Lord directed me to a role in the banking industry, which I did for years. However, during my time as a banker, I still desired to do pastoral ministry. I subsequently became bi-vocational, working at the bank and with my church. This culminated in me being asked to plant a campus of our church in the capital city of Missouri, Jefferson City. After church planting for three years, my wife and I moved back to Colorado Springs, and I took a job with Focus on the Family in fundraising.

After serving five years overseeing various aspects of fundraising for Focus on the Family, a position opened up for me to lead our pastoral initiatives under the brand The Focused Pastor. Today I get to use my pastoral experience to develop content, initiatives, and events that serve pastors all over the country. My time at TMU helped to prepare me for a life of ministry in the local church, in the public sector, and now in the parachurch context that I get to serve in.
