Educational Background: BS Degree from The University of the State of New York

Experience: 6 years at TMA; 14 years prior to coming to TMA

Family: Wife is Mercy who also works at TMA. Children are Cristina and Danny who are both high school graduates

Testimony: While I was still in the military, an older couple invited Mercy and me to attend church. We thought that it was odd that they would invite us during a time of great testing in our family. In fact, we had already been looking for help and thought that perhaps some type of help could be found in a church.

The church was great and we felt right at home. We made no real commitment, but know that we needed God's presence in our lives. After several weeks of good Sunday School and church attendance, we realized that we needed a whole lot more than just church -- we needed to be saved -- we needed Christ.

Not long after this realization, we accepted Christ as Lord and Savior, got baptized, and joined the church. This, of course was the start of a journey with God that would eventually bring us here to New Testament Baptist Church and The Master's Academy.
