About

I grew up on a dairy goat farm in Harrod Ohio, near Lima Ohio. In third grade I left Allen East to attend Temple Christian School where I would finish my high school career. It was here that I played a variety of team sports, joined band, participated in school dramas, led a worship band, and even became school president over student government my senior year, 2018. Outside of school, I was involved in Boy Scouts of America and was able to achieve the Eagle Scout award before aging out of the program. This was also the time where I began to discover passions of mine such as business, leather work, and videography. These are ventures that I continue nurture to this day with DeLeon Leather and Take Two. In fact, I have dedicated my personal YouTube channel to document the development of these efforts.

​

After high school, I attended Southeastern University Ohio's Regional Campus to study business. Throughout my career there, I had incredible opportunities and experiences, especially through the internship experiences. These opportunities have allowed me to grow, specifically in the areas of marketing, communications, leadership, and project management. More importantly, it was the place that I met my fiance, Angelee Lapish. We were married at the end of summer 2021. After we got married, I started as the Digital Content Creator for Small Nation and do freelance video work for weddings and corporate clients.

Church was always a big part of my life. For as long as I can remember, serving at a local church has been an incredibly important part of everyday life. Similar to my older sisters, I have been serving on different worship teams since I was in middle school. Today, I have the privilege of serving with Ethos Church. This influence, along with previous experiences, has encouraged me to pursue a life on mission, serving others and living a Christ centered life. It is for this reason that I strive to "make a difference" in everything that I do.
