Program Director and Administration

Allesha serves as the Program Director at Rock Bottom Hope (RBH), helping lead the heart behind the mission and walking closely with individuals and families in some of their hardest seasons. With deep compassion, wisdom, and a genuine love for people, she helps create programs and support systems that remind others they are not alone and that hope is still possible.

Her passion for this mission comes from years of ministry experience and seeing firsthand the impact that addiction, trauma, and hopelessness can have on individuals and families. She believes healing begins when people feel seen, loved, and supported without judgment. “People don’t just need resources,” she says. “They need someone willing to walk with them and remind them they still have value, purpose, and hope.”

Allesha has a special heart for families, marriages, and those trying to rebuild their lives after difficult circumstances. Whether she’s helping guide programs, encouraging someone one-on-one, or supporting the day-to-day needs of RBH, she brings authenticity, grace, and strength into everything she does.

Outside of RBH, she loves spending time with her family and dreaming with her husband, Danny.

She lives by the words:

“God can take the very thing that tried to break you and use it to help bring healing to someone else.”

Podcast host

The Lord is his inspiration, and he does his best to follow wherever He leads. After God brought him out of his own rock bottom, it only made sense that He’d call him to help others through theirs. It’s an honor to bring hope where it may feel like there’s none left.

He loves that God uses him as a microphone to point people to Jesus and that it all started with one of the boldest prayers he’s ever prayed. God keeps answering in ways he never expected.

To him, purpose is the ever-changing journey of life, moving with intention, guided by Jesus, and learning the why behind every step.

He’s got a gift for making up silly songs (especially about food), and when he’s not recording, you’ll find him volunteering, playing “funcle” with his nieces and nephews, hanging with close friends, or hiking with his dog.

JAIL outreach coordinator

Mark serves as the Jail Outreach Coordinator for Rock Bottom Hope (RBH), bringing the hope of Jesus Christ to men and women who often feel forgotten, abandoned, or beyond redemption. Having experienced addiction, incarceration, and hopelessness himself, he understands what it feels like to believe there is no way out. Today, he uses his story to remind others that no one is beyond God’s grace.

His passion for this ministry comes from spending 37 years battling alcoholism before surrendering his life to Christ. Addiction cost him relationships with his children, family, and friends, led to years in prison, and left him believing he was unworthy of love. Through God’s mercy, Mark discovered that his past did not define his future. He believes God rescued him so he could return to the places where hope feels impossible and point others to Jesus.

Whether encouraging someone inside a jail cell or walking alongside a family in crisis, Mark desires to meet people with compassion, truth, and unwavering hope. He believes every person can experience forgiveness, freedom, and a new beginning through Jesus Christ.

HE LIVES BY THE WORDS:

“God rescued me from the pit so I could go back and help others discover the same hope I found in Jesus.”
