I'm a curious explorer on a century-long search to find meaning in the experience of being a human on this planet.

My guiding beacons are creativity, simplicity, integrity, and proximity.

I’ve spent time working in civics, state government, and higher education, followed by a decade and a half exploring the potential and possibilities of collective faith as a pastor in curious, experimental, and proximity-oriented communities up and down the California coast. I’ve studied at the University of Wisconsin (BA, Political Science) and the Fuller Graduate Schools (MDiv, DMin).

I live in the Bay Area with my family and love exploring the world by foot, bike, or paddle.

I’d love to hear more about:

  • the projects you’re exploring

  • what you’re curious about

  • potential collaborative work.
