"Art is never finished, only abandoned" DaVinci

About Me

I've always been driven to this all-consuming art. An innate desire from my earliest recollections; from my childhood fantasy gigs with me and my full-length mirror to studying classical, jazz, and modern forms at the conservatory to becoming a leader and writer of worship for a royal audience; I'm enjoying the journey. I think we all have a desire to be great at something. One of my favorite quotes says "One cannot consent to creep when one feels the desire to soar" --Helen Keller. To dream like a child is the call of God on every heart. By sharing the passion that makes up who we are, we can add a little light to a dark place. I'm very thankful for the opportunities I've had to birth joy and reflection in the lives of many. From here at home in Lafayette, LA where I lead worship on a regular basis to my travels around the country and overseas, its really cool to remember all I've been allowed to do and the great musicians I've had the privilege to work with. Ahh, so much more fun to be had. Well, thanks for letting me ramble for a bit. I hope you enjoy the art.Coy .
