From the first time I took piano lessons to my first time playing in front of thousands of people, many things happened that led me down the path into the music industry. 

 

1st grade me was ecstatic when I learned I would be taking piano lessons. That ecstasy was a huge inspiration, however, it has to wear off eventually. After suffering from a broken collarbone, and ultimately a poor attitude, I was faced with the decision to quit piano in the seventh grade. I followed through that decision with no desire to play piano again. That was until my worship leader noticed the potential in me and pulled me under his wing . Through that discipleship, I have had many opportunities to use my gifts. Everything from playing on the worship team at First Baptist Church of Covington to mixing live events across the south. 

 

I am currently at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama, studying Commercial Music with a concentration in Music Production, and a minor in Marketing. I work with the Samford Activities Council as a Front of House engineer for their concerts and events on campus. Through this opportunity, I have had the privilege of working with Carver Commodore, Jervis Campbell, and Supper Club. I also do freelance Front of House Engineering and Production Management.  I am certified in Vectorworks and love to design live event spaces. I have a heart to serve the Church and serve on the production team at the Birmingham campus of Auburn Community Church.

​

I believe that the live event space is one of the most unique places to share the Gospel. My heart for production is to bring glory to God in everything I create and produce.
