I began serving at Pleasant Grove in August of 2025. After 16 years of
living in other contexts around the country, I’m thrilled to be back in the
area I’m from. I grew up Fountain Inn, but I understand what it’s like to
live in places unfamiliar to you. I believe the gospel of Jesus welcomes
strangers to become family and I’m excited to see natives to this area
and people new to the area find a place of life, refuge, and support in the
local church— like family.

My wife, Lindsey and I met at North Greenville University and we have two
girls, Addie and Mira. I love to adventure and enjoy backpacking, camping,
and hiking with family and friends but also trying new foods and local spots.

I have had the privilege of serving at Pleasant Grove since 2006. God called me to ministry at age 17 and gave me a heart to see students accept Jesus as Savior and learn their greatest opportunity to experience joy and peace in life is to let God have control of them. In my later years God has given me a broader passion for the overall family and now I have the honor of serving children, students and their parents.  

God brought my wife, Michelle, and I together in college and has blessed us with two boys, David and Joshua. I love soft serve ice cream, doughnuts, DIY projects, Tennessee football, golf, guitar, music, designing stuff and most of all spending time with my family. God has been so good to me and I am truly thankful for His love and grace that He gives me daily!

I began serving at Pleasant Grove in 2026. I have a passion for helping people grow in their love for Christ through the ministry of the local church. Through music, media, and teaching, I enjoy helping others engage with God's Word. It's a joy to serve the church and see people grow in their faith and worship together.

My wife, Abbey, and I have been married since 2019 and we have two children, Tucker and Hadley. I love making memories with my family, reading, and watching baseball and hockey, especially the Atlanta Braves and Carolina Hurricanes. 

I began working at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in December of 2025. I have always wanted to use the talents God blessed me with to serve the local church and in this role I get to help PGBC grow and maximize its strengths to further the Kingdom of God! We are blessed to be members at such a warm and welcoming church!

My husband, Zach, and I met at Clemson University and moved to Greenville right after college! God has blessed us with two daughters, Wrenn and one on the way! I enjoy relaxing on the beach, reading a good book, and anything Clemson!
