Interests

Family. I am married to my wonderful wife, Jennifer. We have two amazing children, Lauren and Jacob (we also have a dog, Marley). We love living in the Hill Country and are blessed to be surrounded by family.

Faith. We are members at University United Methodist Church, we have taught youth Sunday School classes, and in July '13 I went on a mission trip to Haiti to help rebuild a local church.

Fun. I started running as a way to keep in shape and it has turned into a passion: having completed several marathons, half-marathons, and adventure races.
