Dustin was raised in northern BC in a Christian home and attended Peace River Bible Institute in Alberta after high school. A short-term missions trip, combined with his growing passion for aviation, led him toward mission aviation after developing a close friendship with an MAF missionary.

Nacia grew up in central Alberta in a Christian home and is grateful that God drew her to Himself at a young age. As her faith deepened, so did her desire to serve in missions. She attended Peace River Bible Institute, graduating with a diploma in Global Ministries in 2014. Dustin and Nacia were married on July 12 of that same year.

Until joining MAF in 2023, Dustin flew Medevac operations, while Nacia worked with seniors in a variety of care and support roles. They are proud parents to daughters Ellidy (2021) and Ayla (2023) and joyfully expecting their third child in 2026.

Dustin and Nacia are now serving with MAF on loan to Pacific Mission Aviation in Palau, in the Micronesia region. Dustin flies to support ministry throughout the islands, helping bring practical assistance and the hope of the Gospel to cut-off communities. Together, they are actively involved in the Pacific Mission Fellowship Church, serving and building relationships within their local community.
