Brendin, along with his wife Kaitlyn, arrived in Tucson in the summer of ‘22. They came here from sunny (but cooler) Los Angeles to plant a church at the University of Arizona that would be connected to The Well campus ministry. Brendin and Kaitlyn met during undergrad at Pepperdine University and married in 2014. Kaitlyn now teaches 3rd grade at Bloom Elementary here in Tucson and is loving it. Brendin and Kaitlyn also have a sweet daughter, MK, who was born in Sep of ‘23. They are so excited to help emerging adults dream big dreams and step into the specific calling God has for their lives. They also love spending time outdoors through hiking, backpacking, and camping. And even though they’re not in college anymore, they are still always down for a late Taco Bell run.
