Anchored in faith. Sharp in the field. Alive in the song.

I'm a mechanical engineer based in upstate South Carolina, working as a Project Engineer at Techtronic Industries — the company behind Milwaukee Tool and RYOBI. I graduated from Clemson University in 2026 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering. My strongest contributions tend to be less about pushing the ceiling and more about raising the floor — making sure the whole system is sound, the team is aligned, and nothing falls through the cracks.

I also serve as worship leader and music director at a historic rural church in upstate South Carolina — a role that demands more than musical ability. I handle everything from Sunday morning audio and livestreaming to long-range worship planning. Ministry isn't a side project for me. It's the anchor.

I write songs, play acoustic guitar and Hammond organ, and perform at local venues. Music is where the engineering precision and the pastoral care both get to come off — it's the place I'm most honest. Outside of work I coach high school soccer and spend most of my free time outdoors.

Above all else, I follow Jesus. After that, I'm a husband — and I take both seriously.
