I have lived nearly my entire life in Whatcom County and am proud of this great community. I am happily married to my wife Jeannie for the past 20+ yrs and we are blessed with four wonderful children Owen, Macy, Josie, & Weston! I attended Lynden Christian K-12 and graduated from Azusa Pacific University with a bachelor of science degree in marketing in 1998. We are very passionate about the outdoors and enjoy spending our time salmon fishing, biking, camping, coaching/playing soccer, basketball, hiking, exercising, watching the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders win, & gardening. We are actively involved members of Christ the King Church in Lynden and I have coached youth soccer for many years. I've also served on the Friends of Lynden Christian School board and every week for the past 2 1/2 years have the privilege of collecting expiring food at the local grocery stores in town and delivering it to Project Hope our local food bank.
