Summary
I am a 27 year old professional from Kansas City, working in the arboriculture industry at Ryan Lawn in Tree. My job consists in customer management and tree diagnosis and treatment.
My educational background is in biblical studies, having received my bachelor’s degree at Luther Rice College and Seminary, and I have completed one year of study toward an M.Div in Worship Ministry at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.
