Director of Development
I am the current Development Director at Fair Haven Children's Home in Strafford, MO.
My wife and I have 6 children, 5 of whom are adopted, with our youngest still at home (he's only 5).
Samantha works for a Branson, MO RV resort as their Programs and Marketing Director.
Director of Development - again!
As stated above, I am the current Director of Development at Fair Haven Children's Home. I left this work at the end of 2016/beginning of 2017 to return to full-time ministry. After about 4 years away from Missouri, several of our daughters started having children of their own, so we decided it was time to return to this area to be closer to our grandbabies. Fortunately, I was able to return to my former employment and position.
Public Speaking - Team Management!
A predominant portion of my current responsibilities revolves around public speaking as well as keeping our donors informed of our work. It falls in my wheelhouse to build donor relationships and foster loyalty regarding our work.
Business Owner!
My wife and I moved to the suburbs of Chicago in 2002 to open martial arts studios. Within 4 years, we had 10 locations that were fully operational, and it was a profitable organization by the time we sold it in 2008. As a team, we trained new business owners and helped them open their own locations as we handled all aspects of the accounting side of the business, sales, and interacting with hundreds of students from a variety of backgrounds.

Branson is now HOME
We love living in Branson and our little one is enjoying it as well. I grew up in the West Plains, MO area, so this is close to my family. Plus, our grandchildren are a short drive away.
