Tyler is a husband, dad, and founder of Missional Labs, a launch platform helping ministry founders build new ventures for the future of the Church.

A missiologist, strategist, pastor, entrepreneur, and explorer, Tyler has spent 15+ years helping leaders and institutions solve hard problems, clarify what needs to be built, and shape what’s next. His work sits at the intersection of theology, global mission, venture-building, and organizational design. He loves creating environments that activate imagination and move leaders from vision to reality.

Before founding Missional Labs, Tyler spent seven years helping build Church of the City New York, contributing to a movement that discipled New Yorkers and launched multiple ministries and networks. Before that, he served as a strategy executive for OneHope, advancing next-generation Bible engagement globally. He is a Venture Partner with Praxis and was previously named an emerging leader by Lausanne.

Since founding Missional Labs in 2022, Tyler has helped support 150+ leaders and 80+ ventures across 10+ countries. His broader work has taken him to more than 65 countries across 100+ international trips, shaping his global vision for the future of the Church and his conviction that mission today requires better pathways for forming and releasing builders.

He holds a Doctor of Missiology from Southeastern University, an MA in Theology from Reformed Theological Seminary, and BAs in Economics and Sociology from Azusa Pacific University. He lives in Nashville with his wife, Melany, and their two daughters. When he’s not working, he’s usually reading, finding espresso, or working on his golf swing.
