Here, you can meet my family.
Heather and I have been married for three years and together for six. We began our life together as a blended family, making parenting one of our most meaningful and transformative journeys. Heather has a deep love for adventure and long road trips, and she brings that same curiosity and energy into her work. A law school graduate and credentialed mediator, she is passionate about helping people navigate difficult situations. She also serves on the board of the nonprofit Moms Rise, where she supports food distribution efforts and resource navigation for single mothers across the tri-county area.
MacKenzie is 25 and lives in California, where she is on active duty military. We are honored that she is serving our great country.
Eli, 17, is the oldest at home and a natural role model. He loves animals, video games, fantasy novels, and building models, and is often found outside riding scooters with his younger siblings.
Tegan, 10, is the oldest of the younger kids and a fourth grader with a creative spirit. She enjoys fashion and makeup, dreams of becoming a chef, and hopes to compete as a swimmer one day.
Olive, also 10 and in fourth grade, has a deep love for nature and animals and is always looking for ways to care for and protect them.
Maia, 8, is our family athlete. She dreams of becoming a soccer star and takes pride in being a big sister.
August, 7, is our energetic redhead who enjoys Minecraft, video games, and riding his bike.
Joshua, 4, brings constant joy to our home. His favorite color is pink, and he loves adventures, road trips, and jumping on the trampoline.
