About Me

Born and raised in a small town in Iowa until I was 18. Ended up in omaha, leading worship for various churches and events for a few years, and I now reside just outside chicago, as the worship arts pastor for Hobson Road Community Church. My goal is to lead people into worship and teach others to do the same. I have the privilege of knowing and playing with some of the best worship leaders and musicians in the midwest.
