I originally lived in Statesville, North Carolina before I moved to Columbia, South Carolina to study International Business and Marketing at the University of South Carolina, where I met Katie. We moved to Knoxville in 2016 and soon after bought our Knoxville-based location on Magnolia Street.

 

As a co-founder of RAV, I largely oversee how RAV develops and how we continue to grow in our impact both domestically and internationally. I love my job because we get to operate within brokenness and eventually begin to see that restorative picture of people coming to know Christ and being able to transform their lives. My vision for RAV is addressing vulnerabilities of people through deeply investing into them personally and into the community. We want everything to be community-focused and community-driven.
