About Me

I grew up here in Eau Claire and my family was very involved at Bethesda for many years. I graduated from UWEC in 1992 and have served on staff of both Teen Missions Intl and InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. I've been a youth director at a couple different churches for the past 6 years and after a long journey and 16 years away, I am glad to be back in EC and at Bethesda, and serve as the overall Director of Youth Ministries and lead the High School Ministries. I've been married to my sweetheart Elaine for almost 19 years and we have 4 kids: Kira, Samuel, Toby, and Lilly. I love the Lord, my family, students, chocolate, reading, music, biking, running, Ultimate Frisbee, movies, Mt. Dew, and I'm a die-hard Packer fan (got the car to prove it).
