I worked at The Church at Rocky Peak as High School Pastor. Finished undergrad at Biola, started seminary at Talbot then transferred to Haggard at APU.

Choose One...

Beach or mountains?

Beach. I love the beach because I turn bright red with a sunburn. Trees give shade which ruins that.

PC or Mac?

Mac. I converted in 2005; Only two other things changed my life more... The Gospel and TiVo (chronological order as well as order of importance.)

Morning or Evening Person?

Evening. Definitely evening.

Sports or arts?

Arts. I enjoy sports. I love arts.

Creative or administrative?

More creative, but I loathe the idea that those can’t coexist.

Randoms...

Most embarrassing moment:

I ripped my pants open climbing a fence at a church all night event in 7th grade. Rather than call home, I walked awkwardly the rest of the night.

One thing about the staff people don’t realize:

There is a deep affection for the Lord, Lakewood, and Laughter. (3 L’s earns me Preaching Professor Points... OHH, I’m on fire.) Also, people don’t realize Bill Zabel moonlights as a bear wrestler.

Favorite Color:

Blue

Everyone should read:

Mere Christianity, by C.S. Lewis. 

Most played on your iPod right now:

Sufjan Stevens Christmas Album (I love me some Christmas Music) oh and Chris Tomlin.
