President - Mission Flight Academy, Medical missions volunteer pilot and FNP in Mexico.

I鈥檓 a father, leader, aviator, fisherman, former boxer and lifelong learner passionate about WWII history, restoration of cars/airplanes, and Polynesian culture. I鈥檓 currently working toward my Aircraft and Powerplant certification while restoring a WWII-era BT-13 trainer (Serial #0051) that once served in Paraguay as a father son project and family legacy project.

I鈥檓 also a firm believer in intentional parenting鈥攕pending time raising my kids, leading my family, and cultivating the kind of legacy that lasts beyond a lifetime.

I鈥檓 interested in the revitalizing the traditional Malae system across the Hawaiian Islands, studying 驶艑lelo Hawai驶i and Polynesian history.

When I鈥檓 not wrenching on planes or digging through archives, you鈥檒l find me tending to our backyard orchard, grounded in the simple joy of growing and raising our family.

God has called us to a high standard鈥攁nd that means men must lead by the example Christ laid out for us. Paul writes, 鈥淏e on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.鈥� (1 Corinthians 16:13, NIV)

As men, we鈥檙e called to lead with intention, humility, capability and strength from God. Matthew 13:25 reminds us, 鈥淏ut while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.鈥� This reminds me of Leonard Ravenhill驶s quote, 鈥淓ntertainment is the devil鈥檚 substitute for joy.鈥�

Therefore I gather that men must take action鈥攖o be alert, capable, present and intentional. I鈥檓 a firm advocate for throwing out the TV, tablet and whatever is distracting your family and raising them outside. We must rise to the calling God has given us as leaders of our homes, our families, and our communities.
