I have been a follower of Christ since I was nine years old. As a young adult, I served as a youth teacher and deacon before I felt the call to full time youth ministry in 1992. I served at Highland Heights Baptist Church in Memphis, TN before coming to Hernando Baptist in January of 1995.
My heart is to see students and people become disciples/followers of Jesus Christ and to go and make disciples/followers.
