About Me

I am 38 years old and happily married to my lovely wife Regina. We have two beautiful daughters Hannah and Rebeccah . We also have an awesome doggy named Zoe. I love the Lord with all of my heart, and I am nothing without him. I goto to a rockin AOG church here in Indy, and have an awesome Pastor. Music ministry is my God given passion, and it brings me much happiness. I have been playing drums for fifteen years and also learning to be a sound technician. I am very blessed to goto a church that shares my passion for lifestyle praise. I currently serve the Lord in two different music ministries. Kids Force Children's Ministry and also The Freedom Generation Band in Celebrate Recovery Ministry. My musical influences include national recording artist Dennis Chambers, Steve Smith, Steve Gadd, Victor Wooten and Marcus Miller. My local influences include Kenny Phelps, J.R. Viers, Kalani Lancaster, William Turner. Sound Technician influences include J.R. Viers, Danny Stone, Shannon Lancaster, Cory Reason, Jeremy Hinkle, William Turner and my man Henry over at the Church of Acts. The Lord has saw fit to surround me with very talented musicians and technicians who love the Lord very much. I am so thankful for all of the relationships and gifts that God has placed in my life.
