Blake is a student Naval Aviator on base here in Corpus Christi. He is from Milburn, Oklahoma, where he grew up raising cattle on his grandparents' ranch. He is joined by his wife, Martha, whom he has been married to since May of 2025.
Blake attended the United States Naval Academy where he received his commission in May of 2023. While at the Academy, he faithfully served in the Navy Baptist Collegiate Ministry. There he was discipled and learned how to disciple others, and met Martha. From there Blake went to Monterey, California, to continue his studies at the Naval Postgraduate School. In Monterey, he joined with the Navigators ministry and continued to both be built up and build others up in discipleship.
Now the Lord has brought him and Martha to Corpus Christi, and still their main focus is on intentional, life-on-life discipleship.
They’re expecting their first child in August. In his free time, Blake enjoys running, woodworking, and reading about the lives of faithful Christian men such as Charles Spurgeon, Hudson Taylor, and George Muller.
