About me

Gender Male
Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Church Planter / Lead Pastor
Location Helena, Montana, United States
Introduction My wife Andrea is my soul mate and best friend, and we have two crazy sons, Andrik (14) and Kellin (9), in whom I am very proud.

Ultimately, I strive to effectively lead this generation and beyond, especially those who are far from God, into a passionate and purposeful relationship with Jesus, exemplified by whole-life worship.

Having been a musician, songwriter and graphic artist most of my life, I have used these skills to encourage faith communities to help people engage in real life encounters with God.

Five years in Helena, Montana leading a worship arts ministry have served as a catalyst to free this generation and beyond to encounter Jesus.

It is why I am pursuing God's vision to launch Encounter, a new Jesus-centered faith community in Helena geared toward unconnected in this generation – those 20s and 30s who have been turned off by church or found it lacking.
