Bio:

I grew up in Northeast Ohio and was drawn to music, harmony, and singing at a young age. My earliest musical influences are Ron Hamilton/Patch the Pirate, Mac Lynch, the Old Fashioned Revival Hour Quartet, and the SMS Mens Chorus/Quartets. I began composing and arranging at 9 years old, and studied trumpet from 4th grade through my masters degree. I have a B. S. in Music Education from Pensacola Christian College, and a Masters in Church Music Trumpet from Bob Jones University. 

Today, I'm a husband, dad, I lead worship at Bethel Baptist Church in Greenville, SC, and I'm a music creator, barbershopper, and Youtuber. My passion is to share the love of music through worship and singing with all ages. I began Youtube in 2007 by recording pop piano covers, then became brave enough to start singing my arrangements in 2013, which I currently still work on and record.

I began tinkering with computers in elementary school, and started servicing desktops for family and friends when I was 14. I continued working with computers through college and worked IT at BJU from 2011-2012, eventually becoming A+ Certified from 2014-2016. I currently serve computer customers and some businesses all around Greenville, SC. 

I have various professional music services available including live performing for weddings, church events, recording individuals and groups (i.e. bands or orchestras), leading worship, and setting up and running live sound / audiovisual for events.

I also have a small recording studio, where I record myself singing A Capella and instrumental music videos for Youtube. I also compose, arrange, and produce music in a variety of different genres, but concentrated in sacred, gospel, and folk music. Our whole family is musical: my wife Mandy is a Christian singer/songwriter with her own channel and website, and my son Caleb, who is currently 10, is an accomplished singer and has his own Youtube channel as well.
