I serve as a full-time missionary focused on biblical literacy, evangelism, and discipleship, particularly among Muslim-majority nations and unreached communities. My calling is to equip new believers with the Word of God and raise up disciples who can strengthen the Church in places where access to the Bible and Christian teaching is limited or restricted.

I am currently completing Word By Heart, a YWAM program devoted to memorizing Scripture word-for-word so it can be shared in nations where the Bible is illegal. My school is learning the book of Acts on location in the real places where the events occurred, including Lebanon, Turkey, Israel, Cyprus, Rome, Greece, and Malta. Alongside study, we engage in regular evangelism, working with unreached communities, sharing the gospel in Muslim contexts, and serving vulnerable populations.

In 2026, I will be leading Bible schools for Gen Z while pioneering the first prison ministry on the Big Island of Hawai‘i, partnering with New Hope Waikoloa to bring discipleship and hope to incarcerated individuals and their families. In the fall of 2026, I will move to Azerbaijan to pioneer and lead the first Bible school for newly converted former Muslims, equipping believers who are eager to grow in the Word.

Hawai‘i is my sending community and home base, where I am discipled by my church and serve locally through youth discipleship and prison ministry. My long-term vision is to continue serving throughout the Middle East, bringing the gospel, biblical training, and discipleship to the nations.
