About me: I am a Midwestern kid (Indiana) who moved to
California in 2003 with my wife, Tonya. I have been
involved in College and Young Adult Ministry at
varying capacity for nearly a decade, and I love
what I do. You’re more likely to find me in a coffee
shop than my office; I’d rather meet you “out there”
than “in here”. I did my undergraduate work Anderson
University and my graduate work at Hope
International University.
Favorite music artists: Counting Crows, Mute Math,
City and Colour, Mewithoutyou, The Glorious Unseen,
Journey
Favorite movies: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless
Mind, Dead Poets Society, Good Will Hunting, Garden
State, Finding Forrester, Away We Go
Favorite books: The Ragamuffin Gospel (Manning), The
Cost of Discipleship (Bonhoeffer), Abba’s Child
(Manning), The Artists Way (Cameron), How To Read A
Book (Adler), The Return of the Prodigal Son (Nouwen)…this
list is too hard for me.
Starbucks drink: Grande 1 Pump SF Hazelnut Light
Room Americano (Hot or Iced)
If you could have coffee with three people, alive
or dead: It would probably be Chris Farley,
Gilda Radner, and Mother Teresa. I’d just sit and
watch the first two make MT (that’s what I call her)
laugh. It would thrill me like crazy.
Two truths and a lie: I was once a part of a traveling improv comedy/drama team, I have been swimming in
each great lake, I was once 280lbs.
You pit two people in a fist fight, who wins?: Me and
Mike Tyson! You decide!
