My life’s journey has been guided by a simple, yet powerful question: How can I understand the world more deeply in order to serve people more effectively?
My journey began in Columbus, Georgia, where my single mother and grandmother instilled in me the values of hard work and an insatiable curiosity to understand the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind everything.
This drive propelled me through a Division I football scholarship, a business degree in three years, and a Master’s from The Ohio State University. I ultimately graduated from a world-renowned HR leadership program, taking on global responsibilities for a leading multinational company.
But professional achievements are only part of the story. My life has not been without struggle—in fact, it has been filled with it. Through every trial, my anchor has been my faith in Christ Jesus. He is the light that has illuminated every step and clarified my true mission. I’ve learned to consider my own life of little value compared to the task of finishing the course set before me. My purpose is to complete the ministry I have received from the Lord Jesus: to testify to the gospel of God’s grace in every interaction.
Today, I walk this path of service and discovery with my amazing wife, Kyna, and our three beautiful children, Kylee, CJ, and Kadence. They are my greatest joy and my constant inspiration to continue building a life of purpose.
