I graduated from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor of Science in Sports Management, and from Appalachian State University with a Master of Arts in Counseling. Since graduating from college, I worked as a high school counselor and in higher education/student affairs as well. My hobbies include coaching golf, running, and watching the Detroit Tigers whenever I can find the time.

I attend Central Wesleyan and serve as a Pastoral Care Elder/Community Shepherd for the congregation. My favorite verse is Isaiah 58:11 which says, “The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame.  You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.”
