Profile
I have been blessed to enjoy 20 years (and counting) in my beloved field of psychology/counseling/helping. I love what I do and thank God for calling me to this purpose and equipping me to serve. I love spending time with my wife Laura and three amazing children, serving our local church, as well as staying physically active training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
