I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and joined the U.S. Air Force at 20 years old. I traveled all around the world, stationed in Japan, Florida, England, Oklahoma, and Las Vegas. During that time, I married my wife Anna and we started a family with our daughter JordAnne. JordAnne got married and started her own family with 3 little girls. I retired from Active Duty in 2022 and my wife and I moved back to Oklahoma City to be closer to our daughter and son-in-law and grandchildren.
While I definitely bring a “military mindset” to running the Parish staff offices, I am also able to adapt to how a Parish functions as I come from a family of Liturgical and Music directors within the Catholic Church; my dad is a retired Director of Liturgy and Music at St. Monica’s Catholic Church in Santa Monica, CA , and my little brother is also a Director of Liturgy and Music at St. Jude the Apostle in Sandy Springs, GA. As I like to say “I’ve joined the family business.”
I look forward to working with all of our wonderful volunteers and staff members, and I look forward to meeting all of you and getting to know you. If you see me in the office, stop by and say hi!
