About

I’m an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church, serving in the Eastern Pennsylvania Annual Conference, currently appointed to West Lawn UMC as the Associate Pastor. I earned my Master of Divinity degree from Drew Theological School and my Bachelor of Arts, majoring in criminology and minoring in sociology, from Wilkes University.

I am married to the love of my life and my best friend, Teisha, and we are have three beautiful children. In my previous career I served in law enforcement; first as a deputy sheriff with the Luzerne County Sheriff’s Department and then as a patrol officer with the City of Wilkes-Barre Police Department.

In my spare time I enjoy watching sports (especially the Dallas Cowboys, New York Yankees and Pittsburgh Penguins), watching documentaries or movies, and reading a good book (anything science fiction or the American Revolution will do just fine). While camping or hiking God’s beautiful creation, I enjoy taking photographs. I also enjoy a friendly game of ping-pong, chess, backgammon, or really any board game that involves strategy.

Thanks for checking out my blog, I hope you enjoy. Peace and blessings to you and yours.
