A Minnesota native (born in St. Mary's Hospital, owned by the Mayo Clinic), he grew up in rural South Dakota and attended a one-room country school. He was the first member of his family to attend college, where he majored in journalism. Since then, he's gone back for a master's degree in journalism and public relations, taken courses in creative writing, and had a long career as a writer, editor, educator and p.r. specialist. He resides in Colorado.

In addition to writing hundreds of news, sports and feature stories, both as a journalist and in public relations, he's authored 9 books – including "And The Wind Whispered" (winner of a 2016 Colorado Book Award for historical fiction) and his newest, "Rainbow Rock," a mystery/thriller.

In our society today, when many Americans think about poverty, they tend to think in economic categories. You may have heard someone comment, “They just need to get a job!” as if that would solve the problem. While a good job may help someone escape poverty for a time, most cycle back in within 3-5 years. So, there is more at play than mere economics.

When many people look at people in poverty, they say, “What’s wrong with you?” At CrossPurpose, we start with “What’s happened to you?”

At CrossPurpose, we define our holistic approach as abolishing economic, relational, and spiritual poverty.
