My family includes…

I'm a member of…

the Upstate Christian Chamber of Commerce, the Air Force Sarg Association, and Living Vine Community Church.

I'm passionate about…

In my free time you'll probably find me…

My greatest blessing is…

my wife, Leigha, being introduced to me at 18 years old and being together ever since.

Also…

my wife and I love to work on our property where we have chickens, guineas and turkeys!

Community impact

How we make a difference

We feel it’s important to support the communities we serve because…

we want to give back to the places we call home and the people who live there. There are many foundations and causes, but we sometimes don't see the impact at the local level. We feel it's important to improve our communities and focus on making a local impact.

We feel strongly about supporting our communities at a local level. One way we're able to make a positive impact is through Modern Woodmen activities and programs. We especially enjoy:

enjoying social and educational opportunities with my local Modern Woodmen chapters.

Our philosophy on volunteering is…

it’s more fulfilling to give than to receive. We get so much more than we give when we help our communities and families.

We’re most proud of…

the chapters upstate who give back thousands of dollars every year to the communities where we’re located. We’re also proud of the impact we can provide for families and the community believing in us.

A big thank you to our member, Lynsee, and her Financial Representative, Trent, for utilizing the Do-Good Grant to do a thank you for our local Greenville County DSS office! The team at DSS does so much for the children and families in our community, and Lynsee chose to show her appreciation by helping restock their snack supply as a small gesture of gratitude for all they do. If you’re a member with a cause close to your heart, we’d love to help you make an impact through a Do-Good Grant, just like Lynsee! 🔗 https://mwarep.modern-woodmen.org/fraternal/fraternal-member-programs/do-good-grant/

For five Friday evenings at the start of each summer, the Woodruff Concert Series brings the community together at McKinney Park for live music, great food, and FREE admission. Since moving to Woodruff last year, we’ve been excited to put down roots in a town that continues to grow and thrive. This beloved summer tradition features a variety of musical acts that appeal to multiple generations of music lovers. We were honored to sponsor both the concert series and the fireworks show. A special thank you to Miss Woodruff for stopping by our tent and spending time with us during the event. We look forward to supporting more events in this incredible community and can’t wait to be back next summer! #ModernWoodmen #WoodruffSC #CommunityStrong #LiveMusic #CommunityConnections #SmallTownCharm

We love The ARK! The ARK recently hosted their 16th annual Dancing with the ARK’s stars to raise awareness and support for those affected by Alzheimer’s and related dementias. As part of our commitment to giving back, Chapter 496 proudly matched $1,500 to support this incredible cause and help further The ARK’s mission. Last year, I had the privilege of being a dancer, and this year I had just as much fun cheering everyone on from the sidelines. What an amazing event for such a meaningful cause! #WeLoveTheARK #ModernWoodmen #CommunityImpact #SupportCaregivers #DementiaAwareness
