I am a Worship and Tech Director at a local church and have been playing music for 33 years and I have been involved in ministry for 13 years. My primary focus is on live music performance ( Leading worship / running sound) and music production (writing & recording). However, I also have experience in photography, graphic design, web design, traditional and digital art, marketing, and worship department consulting.
