Matthew 25:40 is my favorite Bible verse because Jesus has called us to serve those in need as Jesus himself came to serve mankind.

I'm a part of Mission40 because it is a service-based band that raises funds for those in need. We don't keep any profits, but enjoy the blessings from God for our service to those we serve.

Musical influence started early in my life when I was about 12 or 13 years old and saw the Jackson 5. I remember thinking, "It would be so cool to be in a band like that!" Prince is also one of my musical influences, and I have sometimes even dressed like him in the past. I did play in a band for a few years during and after high school, but never thought I would be where I am today serving God as a member of "The Seeds" and "The Project", and now Mission40 for all the right reasons.

In addition to music, I am also a Fitness Specialist and Youth Fitness Specialist and worked for about 10 years as a Trainer. I enjoy working out and teaching fitness, and I believe it's part of my calling, as God has blessed me with vibrant health as I strive try to share with others the value of good health. I was fascinated with Hercules as a young child and wanted to look like him.
