Born and raised in So Cal, MO has always felt a need to pour into the lives of others. At a young age he realized both his speaking and leadership gifts. Right out of high school, he took an intern position under the youth pastor who led him in the Sinner’s Prayer, and he eventually became the Junior High Guy.
MO attended Azusa Pacific University and received a B.A. in Christian Ministries and Biblical Studies, as well as a Business Marketing Minor. He continued his education at Fuller Theological Seminary and attained a Master of Divinity degree with an emphasis in Family Pastoral Care and Counseling.
Currently MO serves in various ministries, including Teaching Pastor of New Life Ministries in Ventura, Chaplain at Methodist Hospital in Arcadia, and sits on the Ordination Committee for the Evangelical Church Alliance.
