Resonate Church Missoula
Campus Missionary Intern
Growing up, athletics were everything to me. I built my identity around performance, success, and earning everything on my own. My lifelong dream was to play college baseball, but after achieving that goal, I quickly realized it still left me empty. The expectations I had for college athletics and life were not enough to satisfy me, and after injuries piled up, I found myself struggling with depression and searching for something more.
After transferring to the University of Montana, I planned to finish my degree and pursue graduate school to become a sports psychologist. At the time, I was not looking for community, friendship, or God. I spent most of my time training, lifting, running, and trying to stay busy. Everything changed when I met someone playing basketball who was on staff at Resonate Church. He shared the gospel with me, and for the first time, I encountered the unconditional love and fulfillment I had been searching for my whole life. Over time, God completely transformed my life and gave me a passion for ministry, discipleship, and reaching college athletes with the gospel.

As a campus intern, I love sharing the gospel with students at the University of Montana and helping connect them into discipleship groups, Bible studies, grow books, huddles, and village community. I wanted to come on staff because of the transformation I experienced in my own life through selfless men who poured into me and pointed me to Jesus. God used them to change the trajectory of my life, and I feel deeply called to do the same for other young men who are searching for identity, purpose, and direction. My greatest hope is to faithfully walk alongside young men and help raise up men who love Jesus deeply and honor Him in every area of life.
Outside of ministry, I enjoy working out, skiing, hiking, fishing, training athletes, and spending time outdoors in Montana.
