I am honored to be nominated to serve on the LCMS Board of Directors.

With a deep background in finance and a commitment to prudent stewardship and operational efficiency, I would support the Board’s role in establishing sound financial policies, overseeing budgets, and ensuring that resources are directed in ways that advance our mission to preach Christ as the only Savior of the world. I believe disciplined governance and effective use of Synod assets can empower our congregations and ministries to proclaim the love of Christ with boldness and integrity.
