Interests: Sports (volleyball), Music (guitar), Books, Ice Cream, Engineering, People, and Life
I was born in Zaire Africa while my parents were missionaries with Mission Aviation Fellowship. I have also called Haiti, Texas, and Indiana home, but I currently live in Ohio. My family of 9 resides about 40 minutes from Cedarville in the town of Wilmington.
As for my passions, well first and foremost I love serving the Lord Jesus Christ my Savior. My favorite Bible verse is Luke 9:23. It serves as a constant reminder to me that in following after my Lord, I must continually lay down myself as I take up the gift of the cross.
Some random facts: I wear size 13 shoes, I have a dog named Nellie, and my nickname is "Squatch". Also, I am the least avid biker of our two-man cross-country team, but I love the challenge and the cause! All in all, I am excited to see how God is going to use this trip in my life and those around me!
I am planning to graduate on May 5th from Cedarville University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering.

Interests: Biking, Music, Sports (volleyball), and Woodworking
I grew up in a great family of 5 in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania. My family has always been into biking for fun, but I really started to enjoy riding during the last few years of high school. I rode regularly through college and did my first trip last summer. A friend and I took 3 days to ride PA from NY to MD. That trip got me pumped to ride across the country.
Some random facts: I wear size 10 shoes, I have a cat named T-ling, and my nickname is “renaissance man.” I play the cello, bass, drums, guitar, and I am thrilled to be a part of what God is doing with Vision on Wheels!
I am planning to graduate on May 5th from Cedarville University with a degree in Business Management.
