I am originally from Florida, born and raised. I am currently going to Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary getting a MDiv. I enjoy swimming, hiking, golf, music, cooking, and football. When I moved out here, it was the first time I had ever lived outside of Florida.

I went to FIU (Florida International University) for tourism and hospitality management. I was an operations manager of a Lighthouse, a tour guide for the city of St. Augustine, FL, and the last three years I have been a high school teacher, teaching American history to 11^th graders.

In ministry I have been a part of multiple praise bands, playing sax and mixing sound, I was also 7^th and 8^th grade boys Sunday school teacher. This is my first time being a student pastor. I am excited for the learning and ministry opportunities God has planned for me and for the church.
