| I grew up in Monroe, Washington, where loving the outdoors came naturally. From early morning skiing at Steven Pass, to hiking with my friends and family, to late-night campfires, I was outside as much as possible. I grew up going to church on holidays, but it wasn’t until I was in college that I gave my life to Christ. That is also around that time I started to develop a passion for carpentry and woodworking! Since then, my love for the Lord has grown, and through all my adventures, I have felt His presence right by my side. Being outdoors helps me feel closer to the Lord, and the ability to share that with other people is a blessing. I learned about Stonewater and Youth Dynamics in 2025 from my wife, who volunteers with the horse program. It feels like we were always at Stonewater, and seeing how much of a blessing Youth Dynamics was to the community made me want to help in any way I could. I’m excited to be a part of a community where I get to put my love for the outdoors, carpentry, and the gospel to use! |
