About

I’m the CEO of The A Group, a marketing and technology firm in Brentwood, TN that I started in 2001. I’m honored to consult with some of the country’s largest ministries, leading churches, and Christian publishers. I have this right brain/left brain approach to my craft that allows me to see both the creative as well as the systematic needs of my clients. It’s a combination of how things should “feel” as well as how they should “work.”

My professional career began in the church world first as a youth pastor, then as an education pastor and later as an executive pastor of a fast-growing mega church in the Nashville area. My experience in not-for-profit marketing gave birth to The A Group. We are a strategy-based, solutions-driven company. Our strength lies in our technology and marketing teams, which together develop new tools leveraging both traditional and digital platforms as well as social media best practices.

I enjoy speaking on branding and communication,  social media strategies, and the changing world of technology.

I enjoy running, cycling, working out, and eating. I REALLY enjoy eating.   If you follow me on Twitter you might see pictures of exotic and gourmet foods that I often discover all over the world. I enjoy golf but the current state of my game is almost embarrassing, so I won’t mention it here.

I’m married to a very sweet and caring woman who puts up with my crazy travel schedule and eccentricities. I’m a dad to two boys who are as difficult to please as I am.

In my spare time, I’m dedicated to my new pursuit: becoming an international man of mystery.
