I started programming computers when I was in second grade, and my first career was in software development. I still love to help others who are learning to program computers. On the off chance that life and kids permit some free time, you can still find me in the basement tinkering with computers and 3D printers. I still work as a contract computer programmer. I have developed websites, custom WordPress plugins, AWS and Google Cloud projects, Windows and Mac applications, and a little bit of Android and iPhone app development. Check out my personalized gifts at Sand Dollar Innovation.

I am the president and co-founder of the MAST Genes Research Foundation. The strategic goals are to:

  • Connect patients/families to improve the time to diagnosis 
  • Connect patients/families and researchers to facilitate interactions and learning opportunities
  • Connect patients/families together so those with time, funds, and abilities can easily apply their gifts to MAST Genes research and advocacy
  • Raise funds to support competitive research projects  and research awards

I was the President and Founder of the nonprofit Code4Kids. We maximized the potential of the next generation to express their creativity through technology by providing knowledge, access, and inspiration. We especially focused on reaching girls, low income students, and minorities who are currently underrepresented in tech.

I currently live in Centennial, Colorado with my wife and two boys where I am the Director of Solutions Architecture at Gravity Global. I was previously e head pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Littleton. I spent the first years of my ministry at the First Presbyterian Church of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania as the Discipleship Pastor and then Executive Pastor. Before Bethlehem I helped plant a church in Austin, Texas while also volunteering and working for Covenant Presbyterian Church.

I love to learn and I love to create. From music to robots, from Bible studies to children’s books, I enjoy stretching my limits and finding new ways to inspire others.
