About Me
My name is Paul and I live in Spokane, WA. I am a Pastor, Musician, and diehard fan of both The Seattle Seahawks and Gonzaga Bulldogs. I am married, and my wife and I are currently foster parents to two small children.
I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Jazz and Percussion Performance from Whitworth University, graduating in 2007. I have spent the last 15 years of my career in ministry as well as consulting for different instrumental music programs around the nation. Additionally I am a licensed minister in the Foursquare Denomination.
I began the Masters in Organizational Leadership program at Gonzaga University in the fall of 2020, and walked at commencement in May of 2022. My experience at GU has been one of exceptional learning and I am thankful for all the relationships and experiences I have gained during my time at Gonzaga. This program truly has been a blessing to me and I look forward to continuing to grow as a Servant-leader in training.
