I grew up in San Jose, California and moved out to Dallas to pursue my lovely fiancé and soon to be wife, Kayley. I went to California Baptist University, where I played D1 water polo and was the goalie of the team.
Growing up in a Christian family, I am grateful to have given my life to Christ at a very early age. In my high school and college years I struggled with pride and control, thinking I could do things out of my own strength and lived in isolation away from authentic community. God was still pursuing me then and has taught me humility and deep reliance on him. The Lord has provided me with amazing community, friends, and now the opportunity to serve on staff here at Watermark. (I would love to share this God story anytime)
I enjoy playing sports, listening to a good audiobook or podcast, watching Survivor, and spending quality time with Kayley.
