I married my college sweetheart Tanya on June 17, 2000. I am the Lead Pastor at Bulverde Baptist Church, Tanya is the Office Manager for Infinity Concrete and we have 3 kids. Jacob- Sergeant in the US Army Caleb- Plays baseball for Central Baptist College (catcher/ outfield), and Abby plays for Angelo State University (catcher)
After coaching his kids for several years I saw the need for more umpires. In 2012 I began helping at Bulverde Little League where my kids played. A few years later I accepted an invitation to umpire at the District level. At this time I found myself surrounded by a fraternity of umpires. I quickly learned of all the things I was doing wrong and they began mentoring me. I remember going to eat dinner after a game with Bruce Marburger, Marc Richardson, Pat Franks, Alex Hernandez, and Bobby DeHay. These men as well as others along the way have poured into me so that I could pour into others. I have been blessed to umpire at the District and Sectional level since 2017. State level since 2019. Regional level in 2022 and in 2024. I love umpiring and playing a small part in the lives of families as they make memories for a lifetime on the diamond.
