Anyone who knows me knows that I am a man of many looks... ha ha! They would also tell you that I love to laugh, I love connecting with people of all ages and I have a unique outlook on life. I have worn many "hats" over the years. I have been the Executive Director of a non-profit organization, a shoe salesman, a DJ, an emcee, a public speaker, a Spiritual Formation Director, a photographer's assistant, and a drummer. Currently, in addition to being a Wedding Officiant, I also direct a non-profit organization called More To Life that my wife and I started in 2015. I am a storyteller and enjoy drawing attention to the depth and meaning of life's most sacred (and most ordinary) moments.
My wife, Anne, and I met and fell in love in college and got married at the young ages of 21 & 22! We moved to Breckenridge in 2001 to direct a youth organization that creatively communicated God's love to students and families who have minimal church experience. In addition, I helped cultivate the vision and programs of an intentional faith community here in the mountains. Music, technology, culture, theology, creative innovation and movies are some of my passions.
