I was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma. My parents moved to Colorado when I was around three months old, I’ll never forget that trip… ok I don’t remember it at all, but I’m sure it was quite an adventure! I trusted Christ when I was 7 years old. I attended a small Christian school in Arvada from 4^th grade until my junior year when the school closed. I have no doubt the Lord led me to the next Christian school for my senior year, as it is where I met my amazing wife, Julie. We were married in 1991. We had two precious baby girls less than a year apart, but the Lord chose to take them home, our first an hour after she was born and the second just minutes before she entered this world. We know God is in complete control and look forward to seeing them again and spending eternity with them soon! We were then blessed with three incredible kids that we are so very proud of, Austin in 1995, Makena in 1998 and Josh in 2001. We are blessed way beyond what we deserve! God is so good and has been so incredibly faithful!
