  • Aside from workplace procedures, my life is made up of an abundance of joyous moments with my family, church family and dedication to attaining a degree in Biblical Studies. I consider it one of life’s greatest blessing’s to spend time with the ones that have helped develop me into the man that I am today. I enjoy sharing moments of laughter, love and deep conversations over meals, movies, and quiet drives or even Disneyland vacations with my Fiancé, parents and immediate family. When outside my home, my life is dedicated to the ministries that I have the privilege to co-lead with my pastor, fiancé and many other church leaders. My God given love for Jesus Christ, and people has magnificently grown, and I thank those that are within my church leadership and family that have helped me along the way. As I am committed to see the growth of generations of people inside and outside of my home church, I have found that an education of the gospel of Jesus Christ is necessary in supporting my goal and vision. As my dreams come into fruition, I can’t help but be appreciative for every life experience that comes my way.
