Welcome to my page, fam! What can I say about myself? Well, I am what I am, and what that is I am still learning everyday. One thing I am sure of: I am a child of the Most High God, and He directs my life. I LOVE anything that has to do with music- singing, writing, directing, teaching, just enjoying good music. I've spent most of my life studying music as well as various art forms used in the modern day church to worship God. I also honned my skills as they pertain to teaching, harmonization and blending voices. It was in this time that I learned of the levitical call and the true meanings of praise and worship, recognizing that music was simply the vehicle by which these offerings to God were carried and not in itself the complete picture.
Today, I serve in my local music ministry, directing a special group of worshippers called out to serve with my Bishop in leading the people into unrestricted expressions of worship. I've work with artists and groups all over, teaching, doing background vocals (a passion of mine), and coordinating lyrical productions (concerts, weddings, programs, etc). I've shared the stage with greats such as John P. Kee. Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Vickie Winans, Babbie Mason, John Stevenson, Bishop Joseph Garlington, Byron Cage, Dorinda Clark-Cole, and Ruben Studdard. I've also participated on several recordings, including UAB’s sophomore release, Lessons for Life, Joe Pace’s Shake the Foundation and Mighty Long Way, Gospel Goes Classical Featuring Jonathan Butler and Juanita Bynum, and Judy Jacob's No God Like Jehovah.
I love to lead from the masses; I don't have to have the microphone, but my input and influence is felt as I direct background singers, assist with the administration of the music ministries I work with, and teach the unadulterated Word of God as it applies to the ministry of music. Many may see my degrees, musical experience, and accomplishments and think that I have really done something in this world. Well, they are nothing apart from the destiny and purpose that God would have me use them to fulfill.
I love to love, and I love life. I pour myself into everyone I connect with and everything I do; though few may apprecaite it, it's all I know to do and be. I try to be "on the chill," but I am a very passionate and intense person. That is evident in everything that I do and touch- my relationships, my friendships, my commitments to God and family.
The oil of God's anointing has come not without costs, but I don't despise any of it. Very few people have my glory because they didn't share in my story- my strength, endurance, and determination are the result of the refining process that trials have taken me through. I am an open book- I won't lie to you or hide anything from you. So anything you need to know, just ask. I am truly a work in process, as is this page, so check back from time to time and partake in the transformation that God is taking me through.
"Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God." Romans 6:13
