I’ve been a worship leader and guitarist since age 11 and a youth leader for a few decades. I continue to be thankful for the gift of music in my life. My wife Mary Ellen and our 4 children enable me to share this love with young people daily in our home recording studio, where my youth band kids learn music theory, worship leader skills, musicianship while having discussions about faith.
