I joined the staff of Forest Grove in summer of 2009. My role is to help different core ministries of the church integrate well with each other. That means a lot of administration - but not the boring type. The kind of administration I do is mostly about people and helping them do their jobs as well as possible. It is a really cool role. Before coming to Forest Grove, I had a lot of different kinds of jobs including youth pastor, musician, administrator, and seminary teacher. I am married to Rebecca and we have two beautiful daughters - Andra-Lynne and Reisha.
I like camping, hunting and fishing - mostly with my wife. I also like woodworking and golf.
Pets: a yellow lab named Cleo
First job: ROBO car wash attendant
Hidden talent: cooking a mean Hyderabadi biryani (very spicy)
Best gift ever received: a German shepherd pup on my 8th birthday
