I was born and raised in Southern California and gave my life to Christ at the age of 16, after witnessing the radical transformation in a high school friend who had become a Christian just a few months prior. My life was transformed, and I have never looked back! I have been a Pastor since 1988, initially serving in middle school and high school ministries. For the past 20 years, my passion has been working with young adults in ministry. Young adulthood is a time of life when people make lifelong decisions, such as what they will do for a living, whom they will marry, and the kind of person they will become. Christ must be the foundation on which they stand as they make significant life decisions. I’m just grateful to God that He has allowed me to teach His Word to these young people!
