About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Our family lives in a quiet residential area of Davenport, near I-80 or I-74, and just about 5km from the beautiful Mississippi River.

I am a native of the Quad Cities and know the area pretty well, so if you have any questions - ask!

PHILOSOPHY

My wife and I are very carefree and laid back. We believe that our house is not our own, but was given to us by God to share with others. We are followers of Jesus and believe the best way to show that is by loving others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love bluegrass music and play (so-so) the Dobro -- also known as resonator guitar -- and the upright bass.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydived. Hiked to top of Catalina island. Slept overnight on a sailboat in Florida. Drove on the beach in Washington state. Saw Kiluea volcano spilling into the sea. Ziplined across a canyon in Baja California.
