I met my wife, Sarah, at Calvary Chapel Bible College, and shortly afterward, we got married! One of the best days of my life. We have five amazing kids. Sarah grew up in Los Angeles and I grew up in Chicago. Since starting a family we have lived in several states eventually moving to Colorado in early 2015 for this job at Calvary. While we lived in South Carolina I earned my Masters in Divinity degree and have been working full-time as a lead/senior pastor since 1998. You will find me enjoying a cup of coffee, playing golf, and watching soccer, MMA and hockey with some of my kids and I will be quick to tell you that I love skydiving and abstract painting. It is hard to define myself with one hobby or passion since I enjoy so much of what God has given us to experience in life.

I am a native Texan, not by blood but spent 20+ years there before relocating to Pueblo in March of 2024. I met my wife Mariah in Texas while we were both attending Dallas Baptist University where I got my Bachelor’s Degree in a double major of Biblical Studies and Christian Studies with a Concentration in Educational Ministry. I have collectively 10 years ministry experience in almost every aspect of the church from youth, childrens, and even stacking chairs within portable ministry. I enjoy spending my time playing board games, painting, spending time with my wife and son, and relaxing on the couch. My real passion is seeing all believers from tiny little babies to our more “experienced” attenders learning and growing with their faith in God. 

At Calvary Church we are Pastor lead and Elder directed. This means that our leadership team is comprised of individuals from within Calvary (not part of the staff) to help enact the vision, they are called "Elders."
