Jeremy first learned how to juggle in his hometown Morgantown, West Virginia at a kids day camp when he was just ten years old. Shortly after learning how to juggle he was invited to join the West Virginia University Juggling club as the first non college student.

It was at his first International Juggling Convention in 2004, he learned about the Christian Juggler’s Association and has been a member ever since. It is through this wonderful organization that he first learned about combining juggling and ministry together.

He also recently received his Master’s of Ministry from Mount Vernon as well. Jeremy is currently a District Licensed Minister in the Church of the Nazarene and hopes to be ordained in the near future. As a Pastor himself, Jeremy deeply desires to see others follow Christ. It is for this reason he combines juggling and ministry together. Jeremy doesn’t consider himself an entertainer, but a juggler with a message to share. Jeremy hopes to be entertaining, but more importantly he hopes to share the love of God with others.
