My Family

I have been married to my wife Chelsie for 5 years and we have a beautiful baby girl, Lily, who was born in January 2023. We met on the first day of freshman move-in at Harding University in 2014. We love to travel and spend time with family and friends. We attended Shawnee Trail Church of Christ.

Why do you choose to work at Legacy?

I choose to work at LCA simply because of the amazing people God has here. Ever since we joined this team, my family and I have felt God's presence from the other faculty/staff, the families, and the students and athletes. It has been a joy to be apart of a community that is all about pushing forward the Gospel and the Kingdom of God.

What is your favorite scripture? Why?

My favorite scriptures is Romans 8:37-39, “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” This verse has been one that I constantly fall back on, that whatever life may throw at me and my family and all of His children, whatever mistake we may make, that there is absolutely nothing keeping God's indescribable love from us.
