About Me

I'm a 25 year old dude, who after much rearranging and trubulations has a B.A. degree in music and a religion minor from Capital University. I took some classes at Otterbein, changed my major a couple of times, changed and deleted minors, and did what every I could and I finally made it. I love to sing and act, I love rockin out on my guitar, and I enjoy a healthy church and spiritual life. Currently I'm the worship leader for Upper Arlington Lutheran Church - the Church at Mill Run Campus, it's great to be back at home and singing praise to the Lord. I love musical theatre and I'm still hoping to somday be a rock star! I also work at Live Technologies in the warehouse, where we house wares for live audio, video, and lighting events. Come hang with me at church sundays at 10:00 am and 11:15 am.Also check out my new band, we play raunchy nu-metal! It's fun, it's FIRE FOR EFFECT.
