About Me

I grew up in Texas as the son of a faculty member and social worker. After an impactful experience as a Resident Assistant in college, I decided to pursue working with college students as a career. I have a passion for guiding students in these formative years of their lives through supportive structures and programs that allow them to learn outside the classroom. I am married to my lovely wife, Beth, and we have two wonderful children. In my free time you will find me watching Marauders Athletics, playing at a park with my kids, or watching a good film.

Why I’m At Mary

I came to the University of Mary because I believed that the university seemed, from the outside, to live what it says. When I arrived, I found that was true - but there was so much more! There is true community here, founded upon our Christian, Catholic, and Benedictine mission, and student life plays an important part in creating and spurring on that community.
