About
A native of Shelby, NC who grew up in the Pentecostal-Holiness faith tradition. Committed to pulpit ministry since 1984. Pursued secular degrees and a career in teaching after surviving fatal health complications with Shingles and an economic collapse of the home county that precluded the church from supporting a full-time pastor and bishop. Passionate about education and social justice committed to life-long learning and personal leadership development.
