Dad. Builder. Co-founder of Arbor.

I’m a dad and a builder. I started Arbor to take the hard parts of homeschooling off parents’ plates, so more families can raise their kids together.

My wife Shelby and I are raising three kids at home. We wanted more time with them: a closer family, and a childhood that isn’t swallowed by school. Homeschooling was the way. The planning, the lessons, and the records were the wall.

So we built Arbor together. It carries those hard parts so parents can stay at the table with their kids. That’s the work that matters most to me right now: helping more people raise their children well, build a strong family, and actually have the hours to spend with them.

Arbor

A whole homeschool year, planned around your kid. Shelby and I built it so more families can teach at home without drowning in the work that isn’t the kids.

I also help build Buffer. And I host Faith Lab: conversations about the evidence for Christianity.

Before Arbor, a few other chapters.

  • Radio

    Producer in Los Angeles and Portland.

  • Crazy Love

    I worked with Francis Chan, helped build Crazy Love Ministries, and planted churches with him.

  • AppleInsider

    Staff writer and podcast host.

  • Sumry

    A story-based resume. We built it, grew it, and sold it.

  • Work Different

    A job board for companies that took care of their people. We built that, then sold it too.

  • Podcasts

    I started a show and a podcasting network. That work continues in Faith Lab and FaithPods.
