I am married to my amazing wife, Hannah, and we have two wonderful children. Leading and loving my family has been one of the greatest joys—and greatest challenges—of my life. It continually teaches me that meaningful leadership begins with humility, presence, sacrifice, and grace.
My personal story includes hurdles and difficult seasons that ultimately led to an encounter with Jesus Christ. He radically entered my life, changed its direction, and gave me a new foundation for how I understand identity, purpose, recovery, and service. My faith is not separate from my professional life; it is the center from which I seek to care for people and carry responsibility.
Professional journey
From counseling to executive leadership.
After earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Valley Forge in 2015, I began working as a counselor with Pennsylvania Adult & Teen Challenge. That experience deepened my conviction that effective recovery work can honor both clinical evidence and Christian faith.
Over the years, I have served as a counselor, clinical supervisor, quality assurance and compliance analyst, executive director, and Vice President of Programming. Those roles have allowed me to develop experience in clinical supervision, staff development, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, executive leadership, program evaluation, public speaking, and business management.
Today, as Vice President of Programming for Ascend Ministries Group, I help guide programs serving people and families affected by addiction. I am especially passionate about strengthening the systems, teams, and leaders responsible for delivering compassionate, effective, faith-informed care.

My aim is to lead with clarity, serve with purpose, and remain faithful to Christ in the responsibilities entrusted to me.View my professional experience →
