What gets you excited about coaching?

I am obsessed with seeing other people reach their goals and succeed!

What's your #1 tip for gaining new funding partners?

Be vulnerable. Tell stories that move you. Remember you're inviting people to join you in what God is doing, and make sure to use effective language to communicate that.

Tell us about a time when you helped someone overcome a significant barrier to successful fundraising.

I had a client who created a list of names to call daily. Then she would sit for hours looking at her list without making any phone calls. This brought her to tears at times. Over a week or two later, we were able to identify some unhealthy lies she believed about herself that were holding her back. I had her write them down, and next to them, put the truth to combat those lies. After that, she started blasting through phone calls like a champ.

Where can we find you on the weekends?

You'll probably find me throwing full-grown men around in Judo, playing board games with family and friends, making music with my best friends, or watching a movie with my wife and son.

Where have you served as a missionary?

I served as an English teacher in Qinhuangdao, China.
