I originally became an ordained minister online because someone close to me asked me to officiate their wedding. It meant a lot to them to have someone they trusted lead such an important moment, and I wanted to honor that. Getting ordained online was the simplest way to make it official, but the motivation behind it was personal — I wanted to support people I care about and be part of a meaningful milestone in their lives.

I hope to use my online ordination to create a safe, loving, and judgment free space for everyone especially for LGBTQ+ individuals and same sex couples, who haven’t always been welcomed or affirmed in spiritual settings. As a pansexual man, I care deeply about making sure all people have equal access to love, marriage, and meaningful spiritual experiences.

I want to help people connect with God in a way that feels inclusive, compassionate, and free from fear or shame. My goal is to offer ceremonies, support, and guidance that honor who people are, who they love, and the spiritual path they choose.

I blend warmth, spirituality, and authenticity, offering a ceremony that feels personal rather than scripted. My goal is to make the moment not just legally binding, but emotionally meaningful a safe, judgment free experience where love, connection, and the presence of God can be felt in a way that’s genuine to the couple.

I want people to know that my ministry is built on compassion, inclusivity, and genuine connection. I serve anyone who seeks a meaningful spiritual moment, whether that’s a wedding, a blessing, or simply a conversation about faith.

I’m committed to creating a space where people can explore their relationship with God without fear of judgment, especially those who have felt excluded or unwelcome in traditional religious environments. I’m here for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, for people who are questioning, and for anyone who wants a ceremony or spiritual experience that reflects who they truly are.

My goal is to meet people where they are, honor their story, and help them feel seen, supported, and loved.
