My family first came to Good Shepherd in 2014, and I came to know Jesus through my experience in high school ministry here. I graduated from the University of Nebraska in 2023 with a degree in political science, but my time spent in college ministry only further grew my love for the Lord and His ministry. Having discerned the call to work in the local church, I moved back home and began my journey as a staff member - now able to pour into young people the same way it had once been done for me!

I'm in the middle of pursuing my Master of Divinity from Northern Seminary, and hope to graduate and pursue ordination by the summer of 2028. In the meantime, I love preaching and engaging with the liturgy of the church, things I consider an added bonus to an already fun role.

You can find my wife, Audra, and I around the building on any given Sunday morning. We love the support that the people of Good Shepherd have given us, and we hope to call this place our home for years to come!
