My wife and I are both Air Force retirees respectively serving 20 and 23 years. I received my theological education from Moody Bible Institute and Trinity College of the Bible and Theological Seminary. I have been blessed to be Associate and Senior Pastor for 22 years.​I got involved with the APD in July 2016 after the shootings of Dallas Police Officers. I worked alongside Chief Stan Standridge in developing “Pastor’s on Patrol.” I believe that we have the finest Police Department in the nation. So was honored to be asked to serve on the board.​After numerous ride alongs, I was able to witness the tremendous service that APD provides to our community. As one officer told me and I agree that their service is a ministry to our community. As a child growing up in New York City I was so grateful for Police Athletic League after school program. It was completely changed my life. So I feel that being part of APF I am able serve those who had served and continue to serve me and my community.
