Although born in Pennsylvania, New Hampshire is the state of my youth. A graduate of Bow High School, I brought the first soccer state championship to my school, went on to attend Taylor University, where I continued playing soccer. After transferring, I graduated from Cairn University with a degree in Biblical Studies, where I played tennis winning from time to time. I then moved to Lynchburg, Virginia to “pow wow” with God. God won and soon became a youth pastor at Bayside Chapel in 2008.
Married in 2009 to my wife Ava, we started spawning kids in 2010 with our first son Landon. He's named after the World Cup hero Landon Donavan. Brady, named after the GOAT Tom Brady, and then Reagan to complete our family unit.
After about 8 years of being a youth pastor and with new leadership, I was prayed into church planting by my senior pastor David Ridder. In 2017, I and an incredible team lauched Wellspring Church. It is here I learned the highs and lows of success, failure and leadership. The lessons learned have become the lessons now shared in A Recipe for Biblical Success.
I led Wellspring Church till 2024. Got has called me back to New Hampshire to serve with One Church as an Outpost Pastor. I also serve the Converge Midatlantic church planting efforts and am a part-time missionary for Converge Brazil (the Southern Cone Initiative) serving their church planting efforts. I love all things Boston sports, staying active, dinner dates with my wife, hanging with my kids, and hikes with his dog Bruin.
I'm a very under-qualified church planter with an over-qualified God who started Wellspring Church in 2017. Now serving at One Church, I am learning a great deal from Bo Chancey as we Pray for One seeking to see the most people in the kingdom in the shortest time.
Met my wife at American Eagle, Yup I was her boss and she was employee of the month! We have three kids named after greatness; Landon, Brady and Reagan. We are active in local sports, enjoy hiking, and binge watching old school Boy Meets World!
As a church planter, I have a heart for new churches. I serve the Converge Brazil leadership development and church planting efforts. I also serve Converge Midatlantic coaching church planters and leading church planting trainings.
