Brads's BIO
Student Pastor
Hometown: Fincastle, VA
Education: A bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Washington and Lee University.
Family: Ella and I met at Washington and Lee University and were married in January of 2023. We have a son, Thomas, who was born in 2025. We also have a crazy dog named Tucker.
Background: I attended Orchard Hills Church from ages 2-18 years old until moving to Lexington, VA for college, where I attended Rockbridge Church. After graduating, I joined Rockbridge Church’s staff as their Student Ministries Director before joining Orchard Hills as the Student Pastor in June, 2026.
My Passion at Orchard Hills: To see students grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Something not many people would know about me: My favorite fast food restaurant is KFC.
Favorite Illustration of Biblical Truth: I love the account of Jesus meeting the woman at the well. Seeing this as a guide to relationships has been very powerful for me. Jesus cares about this woman despite her past and cultural background. I think this is a great illustration of how He calls us to treat others.
