I am a native Richmonder, having been born and raised in the West End, who eventually found his way back to this wonderful city in 2017. Along with my wife of 35 years, Kelly, and our 2 children (Parker and Delaney), we have lived in the Tidewater area and Northern area of Virginia as well as Albany, Georgia, where I worked in arts ministry, having spent the first half of my post-college career in the entertainment industry, including professional theatre, television, and music. I am a graduate of Wake Forest University (BA, Theatre – “Go Deacs!”) and VCU (MFA, Theatre). In addition to making God known in the community and world through the arts, I love playing golf, running, writing and recording music, seeing movies, and Netflix-binging with my family. I am currently the lead guitarist for the Mike Lucci Band, a local blues band. I am excited to serve God through Poplar Springs and the Richmond community.
