ABOUT ME

Meeting new people and discovering new places make me come alive. CS has brought me to meet some wonderfully gracious and fun people. There is an excitement that comes with making strangers into friends. Sharing experiences, food, hospitality, and friendship is what CS is all about.

PHILOSOPHY

But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do,
what God is looking for in men and women.
It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor,
be compassionate and loyal in your love,
And don't take yourself too seriously—
take God seriously.
Micah 6:8 (MSG)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was able to go to Nepal over Christmas break 2008. It was there that I met a family that had adopted my Grandmother as their relative while she was doing development work there twenty years prior. I was their son, grandson, and brother. The Nepali people have an incredible gift in hospitality.
