I was Born in New Jersey, adopted and raised in Western and Central New York.

Thankfully, I was brought up in a Christian home with two loving parents. As a young child I accepted Jesus into my heart. As a teen, I spent many years serving on short-term missions’ trips. The experience of short-term missions, growing up in a missions-minded family as well as church, have shaped my life, encouraging me to want to serve.

Today I work part-time with mentally and physically handicapped adults. I am married with two teen boys, two adult step stepdaughters, and one step granddaughter. I am looking forward to what God has planned.
