Music Was My First Language
I don’t remember a time when music wasn’t part of my life. My mom was a pastor and choir director, and from the moment I could reach the keys, I was playing in church. By the time I was 12, I wasn’t just playing—I was leading. I was arranging music for choirs, directing bands, and learning how to create moments that moved people. Music wasn’t just something I did—it was how I made sense of the world.
The Early Years: From Church to the Stage
I wasn’t a kid who could sit still in a lesson book. Instead, I was transcribing music by ear, rearranging pieces, and figuring things out my own way. By the time I was in high school, I wasn’t just playing in church—I was playing in semi-professional orchestras, arranging for musicals, and getting hands-on experience in live performance production.
But I didn’t just want to play music—I wanted to shape it. I wanted to create experiences that stayed with people long after the final note. That drive led me straight into the heart of the industry.
Hitting the Road & Learning from the Best
My journey took a pivotal turn when I started working with Phil Stacey, a Top 5 finalist from American Idol. What began as a professional collaboration quickly became family. Touring across the country and serving as his music director in church, I experienced the highs and challenges of the industry firsthand.
I wasn’t just arranging music—I was leading full-scale productions, navigating high-pressure performances, and living the realities of life on the road.
Through Phil, I met Brett Manning, one of the most respected commercial vocal coaches in the industry. I lived in Brett’s home studio, and let me tell you—I learned more in those walls than I ever did in a classroom. I sat in on coaching sessions with top-tier artists, watching how he and his team refined their sound, trained their technique, and prepared them for the spotlight. That experience changed the way I saw music and production forever.
Stepping into the Industry & Defining My Own Path
Instead of following a set path, I carved my own.
I found myself orchestrating Broadway-caliber productions, working with talent from American Idol, The Voice, The Masked Singer, and collaborating with Grammy & Tony Award-winning artists. But music wasn’t my only focus—I was drawn to media, storytelling, and the power of production beyond the stage.
That’s when I stepped into podcasting and media strategy.
I built Top 1% globally ranked podcasts, helped brands and personalities refine their voice, and learned how to craft conversations that truly resonated.
The same skills I used in music—arranging, directing, and producing—translated seamlessly into this space.
The Work That Drives Me
For me, this work isn’t just about talent—it’s about execution. It’s about making sure that every note, every word, and every detail serves the bigger picture. Whether I’m orchestrating a full-scale production, producing a top-tier podcast, or coaching industry leaders to master their presence, my goal is always the same: create something that leaves an impact.
What’s Next?
I don’t believe in standing still. I’m always looking for the next challenge, the next project that pushes creative boundaries and sets new standards. If you’re looking for someone who understands artistry, production, and strategy at the highest level, let’s talk.
