I grew up in the Gastonia area.  After graduating high school, I joined the Army, and got to see quite a bit of the world.  For the last 20 or so years, I have been working in information technology.  Realizing that I have been blessed, I am looking forward to what we can do with this calling that our family has been presented with.  We are hopeful to make a positive impact in our local area and come alongside those in need.
