Technology Support Staff

Professionally...

I am the pastor of the Mount Olive Evangelical Church in Bullskin Township, PA and have been since 2004. I view my participation in the work at the Champion Christian School as an extension of my pastoral ministry and a way to serve the community in a distinctly Christian context.

I have also worked professionally as a software developer for a telecommunications company, a semi-conductor manufacturer, and as a consultant. My undergraduate degree is a B.S. in Computer Science from Chestnut Hill College and I have my Master of Divinity from Wesley Biblical Seminary. My time here at Champion has providing an opportunity for me to marry my passion for technology with my passion for God.

Personally...

I currently reside in Bullskin Township with my wife, April and my three children. I have a broad range of interests including playing the guitar (or at least attempting), basketball, and reading. I appreciate very much my church who allow me to serve them and to branch out into other opportunities as God open's the door.
