_{Gabe was born and raised here in Flagstaff, Arizona and attended Northern Arizona University where he met his wife, Melissa. Together, they have two children, Gracie and Isaiah. They have been a part of Grace since 2001 and he came on staff in 2016. As Director of Operations, Gabe frequently does work behind the scenes. He works with contractors, makes sure the building and office is running efficiently, and manages the finances. He’s the one you call about using the facilities, if something isn’t working correctly, and more. When someone doesn’t know what to do or the answer to your question, they’ll often say “let’s ask Gabe”. Gabe is essential to the inner workings of the church. Throughout the week, you’ll find Gabe spending time with his family, mountain biking, or coaching the Coconino High School mountain bike team.}
