Before joining the FBC Staff in January of 2023, I served as the Minister of Students at Trinity Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC. In 2014, I graduated from North Carolina State University with a degree in International Studies and a minor in Non-profit Studies. In 2018, I graduated from Campbell University Divinity School with a Master of Divinity degree.

After graduating, I began serving as a Student Ministry Intern at Trinity Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC and was called into the role of Student Ministry Associate in November of 2014 working primarily with Middle School Students. In 2015, I stepped into the role of Minister to Students serving middle school, high school, and college students and their families. Finally, in 2019 I took on ministerial leadership of the Recreation Ministry and became the Minister to Students and Recreation.

I have been married 6 years to my wife Ashley, and we have an almost 2-year-old daughter, Reese – whom our lives revolve around – and our dog, Kira.
