I am a Christian Country recording artist called
according to His Purpose, His Kingdom, and His Glory!

I gave my heart to Jesus kneeling in a cold, gray
prison cell, surrounded by concrete & steel. It was my third time in prison and I had tried
everything the world had to offer in order to
attempt to fill that void in my life. That night,
Jesus touched me!!

At this time in my life, I had been writing,
singing, and playing country and southern rock
music for about 10 years. I had never really been
involved with church and I had no knowledge of
Christian music. So as God fine tuned my
abilities and the Word became more prominent in
my life I began to write my own songs unto the
Lord.

I could provide details of my past that would
probably amaze most, for my life was typical of
one who might land in prison three times. But
with Jesus, it's not about where you have been,
it's about where you are going!!

Only Jesus can take a shattered past and give it a
future! Only Jesus can take a broken, beaten
heart and give it hope! Only Jesus can take an
utterly hopeless situation and provide a victory!
He can do for you what He has done for me!

I walked out of prison five years ago for the
third and final time. Though my journey since
then has been tough, Jesus has walked with me
every step of the way. I have been unable to
make a descent living due to my past, but every
time there has been a need, God has provided.
Sure I could put together some slapstick band and
make good money playing in bars and clubs, but I
have chosen to use my God given talents for HIS
PURPOSE, KINGDOM AND GLORY! He is using what He
has given me to change lives!

I have my entire debut album "Walk With Me"

That's me in a nut shell.
