I absolutely LOVE music!!! Let me say that first. I really enjoy playing, listening to, teaching, and learning about music. Most of my playing experience came from growing up in the church and playing in various school and extracurricular music groups.

My favorite styles are rock, CCM, Contemporary Gospel, RB, Latin, and Pop/Electronica. Read More
