All About Isaiah...

I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah and lived in West Jordan almost my whole life. I grew up in a fun neighborhood where my friends and I played games (indoor and outdoor) on a daily basis. We also made sure we had summer passes to the local theme parks like Lagoon and Raging Waters. Let's just say there was never a dull moment in my childhood.



I am the youngest of six kids and I'm close to my family. I have loving memories will all my siblings and have formed a bond with them that is unbreakable. I followed my 5 older siblings footsteps by serving an L.D.S. mission after graduating high school.

As an Elder of the church in Vina Del Mar, Chile, I learned what it means to really serve others. I have been touched by the lives of many and hope the simple messaged I shared did the same. I would love to take Rosie back there someday to see where I served and let her meet some of the families I got to know.



When I came home from Chile, I decided to attend Salt Lake Community College where I graduated with an Associates in general studies. Later I entered the Mass Communication program at the University of Utah and graduated within two years. With a degree in Mass Communication and a Minor in Business I had the desire to work in Public Relations. When I approached my boss who is a family friend, he offered me a promising position at his creamery so I decided to stay.

When I'm not at work or doing honey-do's for Rosie, I enjoy spending time with family, riding my motorcycle, and playing sports. I'm an avid fan of the Utah Jazz and someday would love to have season tickets.



Currently Rosie and I don't have children of our own, but we have two beautiful nieces and a strapping new nephew that we love to play with. There is nothing more energetic then when my little niece sees us and jumps up and down shouting our names. We love all of them and can't wait for the day when someone jumps up and down and shouts mommy and daddy.



Rosie’s view on Isaiah…

Isaiah is the greatest! He will be such an awesome father. I know he will be a big part of our children’s lives because of the way he loves to play with his nieces and nephew. It is fun to see how much the kids in our neighborhood love to play with Isaiah. At church he likes to have a “little buddy” come and sit with him to read books to and color with. It's funny to watch him play with kids. He likes to ‘bug’ them by tickling their feet (which is a nice break for me since it’s usually my feet he’s attacking). Isaiah is goal driven and a hard worker. I’m lucky to have him as a husband and admire the way he honors his priesthood.
