Immediately after graduation, spent 6 months in Zaire (now Congo). Came back to start college @ ACC. Converted to Christianity & transferred to UT with major in Art. Starting working at church (Great Hills B.C.), where I met this girl who came from Georgia to do an internship. She was so Southern her name was Nina, pronounced Nigh-Nuh. I married her 3.5 years later.
Went to seminary (grad school for pastors - Covenant Seminary in STL) and got a Masters of Divinity by God's grace and the application of coffee and all-nighters cramming ancient vocabulary.
Started work at a church in Houston area (The Woodlands) for a year. Moved to Atlanta for what I thought would be a brief time of job hunting. Lived in the ATL for 7 years. Started working in children's ministry at Perimeter Church - best move I never intended to make. I learned that being that "dork with the puppet" is actually a great calling.
Nina & I have two boys, Elliot and Stone. Spend more than 5 minutes in our house and you will step on a Lego.
Now we are in Saint Louis, out in West County at Chesterfield Presbyterian Church. Nina works part time at Covenant Seminary as an office manager.
I am on Facebook, so look me up. Also Twitter, under the name orangutangus (though I don't tweet nearly as often as the professionals).
