We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
Together with my wife, Mary Grace, I serve at The Ohio State University. Heading into my 4th year in Columbus and I love being a Buckeye more than ever. As the Team Director, I oversee 8 other missionaries – meaning on top of leading bible studies and mentoring young men at Ohio State, I manage and coach my teammates to reach souls for Jesus Christ and His Church.
Since encountering the Lord at age 19, I have desired to know Christ Jesus and make Him known. From mission trips, to youth ministry, to diocesan fundraising, I have been on quite the journey to encounter what Jesus wants for my life. All of these experiences have led me to FOCUS.
Now, my story looks like this: an aging twenty-nine-year-old washed up college athlete – working to share the life-saving message of Jesus Christ with young men at OSU. The best part – I get to do this alongside my bride.

The best part: my YES can also be your YES.
And supporting me is supporting my future family — and exciting news for 2026 — we’re expecting a little girl in August.
When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. Thank you for your openness to supporting this mission.

By building genuine friendships, we meet students on a deeper level.

We teach students how to share the gospel, who in turn teach other students how to pass it on.
