I was born in Paris, Arkansas in 1965 and raised in a devout Catholic family. Catholicism was strong in our family’s tradition. I was baptized in the same church where my parents and three of my grandparents were baptized. I moved to Texas in 1988 to work as an engineer, but after some time, I felt God calling me to something else.
I entered the Seminary in 1994, studying for the Diocese of Dallas. I was ordained in 2001 and was assigned as pastor of St. Gabriel the Archangel in 2008. I feel blessed to have served for these many years. I love seeing the ways the Lord moves in the people of this parish, and I am proud to be your pastor.
