I was raised in Northern California, splitting time between my parents' home in Windsor, CA and my grandparents' cattle ranch in Clearlake, CA. I was blessed to have strong biblical influences in my life, including my great-grandfather, Reverend Maurice Wilcox to who served in the ministry for almost 80 years. My parents ensured that I was raised with strong biblical foundations, which I am still so appreciative of to this day.  I played several sports throughout my childhood and have a strong appreciation for how sports can bring people from all different stages of life together. After graduating high school, I moved to Salem, Oregon where I attended Corban University pursuing a degree in Business Management. This is where I met my amazing wife, Alexis. We were married in 2015 and have since welcomed two energetic and loving sons Jensen and Hunter. We are blessed to have a beautiful home made up of beautiful people, and enjoy a dedicated church life with our home church RefugeOC in Orange, CA.  

My wife was a collegiate soccer player at Corban University and through her career she was introduced to Paul Gizzi with the then SoCal Seahorses, now Eagles. After graduating college and receiving her master's degree, Alexis began working with the Seahorses. Her career led her away from the organization after a couple years, but we have remained in close contact with the organization, even having our sons participate in various youth leagues and soccer camps. My career involves experience in the steel industry and in home water filtration. Rather abruptly I found myself in a season of job hunting. During this time I grew a lot as a man and learned a lot of lessons about leaning on God and trusting in Him. After nearly a year in this journey, I found that the Eagles were hiring for various positions and decided to reach out and see how I may be able to serve. I am so happy to be in an organization that is openly serving God and I am so excited to bring what strengths I have to this organization, as well as continue to grow in my faith. 

I will be handling a lot of the business operations of the organization. I will assist with certain youth leagues and camps, as well as handling financial decisions and ensuring that our organization maintains its excellent financial stewardship that God blesses us with through our many faithful supporters nationwide. I will work very closely with MAI HQ, as well as our Executive Director with all office administration and management.
