About

Who I am

I’m a technical and creative hybrid: equally comfortable behind a video switcher, writing for choir or band, or analyzing bids and contracts to equip a team with the right tools.

As a lifelong musician, I compose creative works for concert and jazz bands, with samples featured below. My writing also includes choral and orchestral music, as well as contemporary worship songs. I studied and graduated from the world-renowned Univerisity of North Texas.

For over three decades, I’ve led and supported production teams in live-event, worship, and educational environments. My background spans music education, full-time technical ministry, live video direction, and procurement for large-scale A/V systems.

I enjoy turning complex requirements into clear systems: coordinating volunteers, designing playback workflows, and selecting gear that serves the people actually using it week after week.

  • Composer and arranger for ensembles ranging from bands to full choirs and orchestras.
  • Experienced in multi-screen environments, lyric playback, camera direction, and live broadcast mixes.
  • Procurement-minded: evaluating vendors, negotiating quotes, tracking budgets, and supporting long-term asset planning.
