OBJECTIVE               My heart is to create a greater culture of worship to the local church. I want to equip the next generation of worshippers and worship leaders. My vision on how to achieve this is through worship services, recordings, song writings, raising up teams, and practical trainings.


SPIRITUAL               Having been reared by Christian parents active in their church and

PILGRIMMAGE        demonstrative in their faith, I came to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior

at an early age.  It was at the age of nine, while attending a summer associational

camp, that I professed my faith in Christ. Through active involvement in my

church’s youth group as well as opportunities for volunteer service, I began to

sense God’s leadership into ministry.   It was during my freshman year in college           that His calling became clear to me.  Through various ministry opportunities, my

college experience, and my seminary education I have been able to clarify the

focus of that calling.  I am convinced that God has given me the desire and gifts

to serve Him through discipleship ministries.
