About

Who I Am

I'm a father. I live in East Tennessee. I run trails.

I've built brand identity systems, digital strategy, and web presence for global ministries, enterprise technology companies, and nonprofits. My work sits at the intersection of three worlds most strategists never inhabit at once: faith and ministry, enterprise technology, and human transformation.

The work looks different every time. The outcome is always the same — an organization that knows who it is and shows up that way.

I'm also the creator of Momentum Foundations. It came through my own story — a season that took everything and gave back clarity I didn't have before. I needed a framework that connected identity change to real behavior change, grounded in Scripture and lived experience, and it didn't exist. So I built it. It integrates neuroscience, spiritual formation, and practical behavior change into a structured pathway for people who are ready to move forward. None of it is theory.

Is This What Monsters Do

A man in the wreckage of what he's destroyed, asking the only question left. Raw, unflinching, and harder to shake than most things you'll read.
