O God, you are my god. early will i seek you.
Psalm 63:1
MY FAMILY
God has blessed me with a great life! I met and married my beautiful wife Jenn 23 years ago, and it's been a blast ever since! Jenn is hilarious and keeps me on my toes laughing! She is also a licensed minister called to women's ministry and a true people-person who really loves the Lord.
By secular profession, Jenn is a marketing director and talented website developer. She is also a licensed cosmetologist, and an amazing cook....which sometimes sadly shows on my love handles. :-)
​
God blessed us with two amazing children, Jiahna (shown below) age 23, and Joshua age 28. Jiahna has a BA in Public Health and is currently in premed, with plans to attend medical school. Joshua has a BA in Business and has recently decided to go to law school, so he's not outdone by his little sister. :-)

MY HOBBIES
I'm an animal enthusiast I love dogs and cats! We own 4 Black Russian Terriers (one shown with me below), and 3 Maine Coon cats. They really enrich our lives and all have their own unique personalities. Shuri (shown below) is a laid-back kind of gal who lives for hugs, kisses, and treats.
​
I also love sports, namely football (Go Steelers!), and basketball. I trained my daughter to play basketball, and she went on to play for the elite Pittsburgh Bruins AAU team for 4 years during high school. Although she's an amazing player and had several college offers, she ultimately decided to accept a full-ride academic scholarship to Kent State University in Ohio. Yup, I have to admit, that stung a little, but I had to accept God's plan for her life. :-)
​
My weekends are normally filled with hanging out with my family. I also enjoy fellowshipping with God's people when opportunities arise.
THE START OF EACH DAY
'Morning by morning new mercies I see'
My mornings begin with prayer, praise, and studying God's word. I often go on early morning walks to talk with Him. There's just something about that time of day when everything is quiet and it's just me and Jesus. Giving God the first part of each day helps me keep my perspectives and priorities in order.
