about me:

Living in Franklin, TN, I’m Krista’s husband, enjoying a variety of pursuits including a couple of writing projects, co-founding a publishing company (Swerve Press), working at The Lampo Group, teaching opportunities as they arise, and leading worship.

my myers-briggs type indicator:

INTP

Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving 

“INTPs contribute a logical, system-building approach to their work. They like being the architect of a plan, because of the scheming and thinking involved, far more than being the implementer of that plan. Implementation tends to be drudgery. They are content to sit back and think about what might work, given their view of the situation. INTPs may ignore standard operating procedures. The hours that they spend are not what is important to them, but rather the completion of their thought process”

– INTP – The Wizard (Lifexplore)

likes solitude, not revealing, unemotional, rule breaker, avoidant, familiar with the darkside, skeptical, acts without consulting others”

my enneagram:

THE INVESTIGATOR
Enneagram Type Five

  • Basic Desire: To be capable and competent
  • Basic Fear: Being useless, helpless, or incapable

Fives are alert, insightful, and curious. They are able to concentrate and focus on developing complex ideas and skills. Independent, innovative, and inventive, they can also become preoccupied with their thoughts and imaginary constructs. They become detached, yet high-strung and intense. They typically have problems with eccentricity, nihilism, and isolation. At their Best: visionary pioneers, often ahead of their time, and able to see the world in an entirely new way.
