Junior High Pastor

​Leaders & Life Groups

God called me to be a youth pastor when I was 13 years old, and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I originally hail from the Midwest, but I've been on the JHM team at Saddleback since 2014 and I'm pretty sure I have the best job in the world. I think junior high students are the coolest and love watching how much students grow (in every sense of the word!) in these couple years. Other than JHM, my greatest loves include the beach, iced coffee, being outside, and tacos. 
Junior high students are some of my absolute favorite people and I am stoked to be a part of Junior High Ministry at Saddleback. Along with being fun, goofy, and absolutely hilarious, I love seeing students have light-bulb moments in their relationships with Christ and take steps to make their strength their faith. If I could, I would spend everyday outdoors, especially at the beach, drinking coffee, and eating acia bowls. Swing by JHM to say hi, I'd love to meet you!

​Orange County and Saddleback Church have been home for as long as I can remember. I grew up through JHM and HSM, and as a high school student, I felt called to work in Youth Ministry full time. I am so thankful that God has led me to my home church to work with my favorite people on the planet. Nothing is more exciting to me than watching students fall in love with Jesus and his church. It is a privilege to have a front row seat to life change! I love visiting coffee shops, playing card games, eating tacos, and going to the beach.
​I came to Saddleback Church in 2011 as a junior high student, and ever since then, I have called this church my home. I actually gave my life to Christ at JHM Camp that summer back when this ministry was called Wildside! I was called to work in ministry while I was in high school, and no matter what other endeavor I pursued, God always brought me back to students. It makes my heart so full when I see students I have interacted with grow in their faith and show the love of Jesus Christ to others. When I’m not at church, you can find me running on trails or roads, reading a nice book, or munching at Linda’s Coffee House. Come say hi! I don’t bite…unless it’s a breakfast plate with 2 scrambled eggs, bacon, and hash browns.​

​​Next Steps & Life Groups

I’ve lived in South OC for my entire life, so you could say that I’m a California guy through and through. My Junior High and High School years were where I started to have a clear understanding that Jesus is more important than anything else in my life and I began sensing a tug on my heart to serve Him with everything that I am. Soon after this, I felt an overwhelming feeling that I needed to be in full time ministry and the Lord opened a door for me to do just that! Junior High was a critical time for me and my relationship with Jesus, so I love that I get to help students become closer to Jesus with their time here at JHM. I love answering hard questions about the Bible and Jesus, so bring your hardest ones to me and we can tackle them together! If I have a day off, you’ll catch me surfing, hanging at the beach, playing guitar, or eating sushi! Sushi is the greatest thing ever invented; and there’s no debating it!​

​Summer Staff

I have lived in OC for only a few years after growing up in Maine for 12 years, and I am a huge fan of California's weather! I have been attending Saddleback Church since I moved out here in 2018 and instantly felt at home. When I started serving at JHM in 2021, it felt like a perfect fit and I quickly wanted to be more involved. I started as a weekend leader and became a life group leader shortly after. Now being a summer staff, I get to be on the front lines of life change! In my free time, I love playing spikeball, basketball, and hanging out with my friends and family. I just recently learned about my passion for pickleball so if you want to play just let me know! ​

I am SO excited to be on the JHM summer staff this year!! When I was in Junior High Ministry at Saddleback, my faith and trust in Jesus grew exponentially when I was encouraged to make my relationship with Jesus my own! I am going into my sophomore year of college, and I have served with JHM since my junior year of high school… and I love it! I can’t wait to learn more about youth ministry this summer. A few of my favorite things are trying out new coffee shops all over Orange County, laughing with my friends, and traveling with my family! ​

I have been a SoCal and Saddleback local my whole life. I called SK, JHM, and HSM my home as I grew up in the church but none were as impactful on my life as JHM. My time in JHM was so amazing that I wanted to come back as a volunteer as soon as I was able to. After volunteering for a couple years, God put it on my heart that I should intern here in JHM. I love this ministry and think it is just so much fun! I think that Junior highers are an often overlooked age group and I want to give them the attention and care that they deserve. I feel as though this is where God is calling me, so I want to give it my all and help impact as many lives as possible.
Some of my favorite things are the surfing, videogames, cars, and anything sports related.
