Summary

I was raised in a pastor’s home, so I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of pastoral ministry. In various capacities, I have been in ministry myself for around 15 years. I have served as both a youth pastor and an assistant pastor under two different senior pastors, and in other positions under a third pastor (Bible school instructor, choir bus driver, ministry vehicle and team coordinator, etc). I have promoted a spirit of worship in the church through direction of the music ministry. I have worked under and have become familiar with different leadership and management styles, some of them positive and some negative. Having been in different management positions, I have experience dealing people of many different temperaments and personalities. I have worked to advance the kingdom of God and the Body of Christ, whether through teaching, preaching, hospital visitation, music ministry, or just 1-on-1 interaction.
