I got an early start in music singing in a southern gospel group at the age of 7. As I grew older, my passion for music turned into a passion for audio engineering and production and led me to pursue certifications in audio engineering. At the end of the day, music is my passion and I excel at harmonizing a sonic balance with the style of any song.
