About the Author

Todd grew up in Silicon Valley when it was still filled with fruit orchards. He and his wife Karla have been with SIL, and more recently with the Wycliffe Global Alliance, for 30-plus years – in Ghana, Kenya, the U.S., and now in Penang, Malaysia. Their two adult sons, an artist and a lawyer, both work in San Francisco. Todd serves on Wycliffe’s Global Leadership Team as a consultant for leadership development. He also is a member of International Partnership Associates, whose goal is to multiply effective partnering and ministry to least-reached peoples. He and his wife Karla love to befriend younger mission leaders and their families. In Penang, they enjoy exploring the historic neighborhoods on foot, and finding interesting (and cheap) places to eat.
