What else he likes to do:
Hike, play music, and explore Oregon (and occasionally binge a Netflix series).
Where he was when he chose Christ:
I was ten years old at WiNeMa Christian Camp near Lincoln City. I accepted Jesus as my Savior and was baptized in the lake. The ocean was too cold!
Why he chose ministry work:
Originally I thought I would go into the music business scene, but God quickly corrected me and put me in front of a youth group and it’s been a whirlwind ever since.
His favorite worship song:
The Stand by Hillsong United.
The best experience he ever had while serving the Lord:
I was able to lead a student to rededicate her life back to Jesus after turning her back on Him. It was an awesome celebration that ended in a baptism.

If you can dream it, God can dream it bigger.
What he's doing for Dayspring:
I am equipping students to live out their faith as lasting Christians who love Jesus and serve like Him.
