Most recently, he served as Chief Strategy Officer for Biblical Ministries Worldwide, where he focused on recruiting missionaries and supporting a global network of church planters by enhancing the sustainability of their work through the integration of business and ministry. He has also held executive roles including COO, CFO, and Chief Strategy Officer across a variety of business sectors.
