Hugh was born and raised in Knoxville and works as a critical care nurse in an area hospital. He was saved at an early age, but didn't completely understand the gospel until someone explained it to him through Ephesians 2 near the end of high school. He got involved in international medical mission work after college and met his wife Taylor (also a nurse) in the process. Because of his relationships with long-term missionaries, Hugh is passionate about making sure long-term mission partners feel remembered and supported.
