Biography

A formative summer experience working at the YMCA in my hometown of Saginaw helped me discover that I find great fulfillment and purpose in working with young people as they learn about who God has created them to be and how He desires for them to live. I have loved my experiences as a Biology Teacher, Coach, Principal, and now Head of School in Christian schools and am continually inspired by the mission of South Christian. I am a product of K-12 Lutheran schooling and a graduate of both Calvin University and Grand Valley State University. My wife, Abbie, and I live in Byron Center with our three boys.

Faith Statement

I believe that just like God called Abraham, Moses, the disciples, and countless others, God is calling each of us to take active roles in his redemptive work on Earth. Therefore, we offer ourselves as holy and living sacrifices, to do whatever it is God is calling us. God has called me to play a leadership role in equipping others to live Christ-centered lives, and to help them use their gifts and passions to bring about God’s kingdom on Earth. I believe each person is uniquely and wonderfully made in the image of God and has a critical role to play in God’s story.
