I was born in South Carolina and raised in Central Florida. I am the oldest of ten siblings and an identical twin. After graduating from high school, I attended the Baptist College of Florida for two years, where I studied music. At the age of 20, I joined the United States Army and served as an Infantryman in the 2nd Battalion, 27th Infantry Regiment.

During my service, I met my wife, Kirsten, in 2015, and we were married in March 2016. We welcomed our son, Matthias, in May 2019. I came to know and follow the Lord at the age of six. My father, a preacher, led me to the Lord and faithfully discipled me throughout my childhood.

At fifteen years old, while attending a youth camp, I answered the call to ministry. I enjoy a wide range of hobbies, including watching football and baseball, scuba diving, playing softball, video games, building and repairing computers, golfing, and playing guitar. Most of all, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends across the island.
