Todd has a passion to help church leaders create effective facilities that do not strain finances.

He studies and attends conferences to understand current trends in the church and their impact on the development of new facilities. Moreover, he seeks to be led by the Holy Spirit as he works with ministries and as he approaches each design he works on.
