Background

Previous to teaching at Northwest, I served in pastoral ministry to college students: 6 years in a congregation and 3 years as the first full time campus pastor here at Northwest. It was my pastoral experience with college students that led me to pursue my doctoral studies in philosophical theology at St Andrews in Scotland. I am very pleased to be back at Northwest in my new role teaching philosophy and theology.

Family

My wife Jennifer is an executive with a software company and a Seattle Sounders addict. My son is attending our Alma Mater, the UW, in the college of engineering and is still recovering from his disappointment with the latest Star Wars movie. My daughter is in high school, loves wildlife photography, volunteers at the Woodland Park Zoo, and is looking forward to attending Northwest University.
