I am originally from Los Angeles, CA, but my wife and I moved to TX in the summer of 2021 after we graduated and got married. My wife's name is Abby, and she is a nurse at a hospital in Arlington. I attended a small Christian university known as The Master’s University in CA and majored in Biblical Studies with an emphasis in Christian education. I am currently in graduate school for my Master of Education through the University of North Texas. Teaching has always been a passion of mine for 3 reasons: 1) I get to see kids grow intellectually, 2) I get to pour into the upcoming generation and, Lord willing, be a Godly influence, and 3) I get to display the love of Christ that has been so graciously lavished upon me. I am still learning a lot about what it means to do these things well, but I'm thankful for the grace, love, and support I get from all here at CCA.
When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? When I was a kid, I always wanted to be a Photographer/graphic designer.
Why do you choose to work at CCA? I choose to work at CCA for 2 reasons: 1) it is an opportunity to love and lead students in a high education and 2) I get an opportunity to do life and display the love and compassion Christ showed me though His dying death.
What is one fun fact about you? My family sport growing up was boxing. All my older brothers competed and I did too. I started when I was a kid till my freshman year of college.
What is your favorite book of all time? Radical by David Platt - It gave me perspective of what it meant to follow Christ.
What is one thing that can instantly make your day better? Food. I love food.
