About the author

I spent nearly 25 years as a fundamentalist, evangelical minister, including six years in leadership at what was once the world's oldest and most renowned "ex-gay" ministry. I am a conversion therapy survivor. My books include, Rethinking Everything - When Faith and Reality Don't Make Sense (2018), Going Gay (2014), and the business book, Everything I Learned About Management I Learned From Having a Kindergartner (2012). I've also written two e-books: Where Did My Religion Come From?: A Brief History of American Evangelical Christianity (2018) and 5 Facts About Conversion Therapy We Know For Sure (2018). And I contributed a chapter to the academic book, Negotiating Spiritual Violence in the Queer Community (2019).

I'm a freelance writer on the confluence of religion, politics, and sexuality. My work has appeared in, among other outlets, Huffington Post, The Good Men Project, Medium, Fox News Radio, Vice News, and multiple radio shows and podcasts. I hold a graduate degree in education, where I focused my studies on cognition and transformative learning, and I’m a member of the American Psychological Association.

I'm married to an incredible guy who teaches blind kids. And we are recent empty nesters with two daughters currently in college.
