506 Bayberry Euless, TX 76039


I am a young visionary that has big ideas and loves figuring out the puzzle pieces to market them well. I love the artistic side of business and have a natural gifting in seeing the world differently and more creatively. I have spent many years working as a worship pastor in large churches and also as a solo artist/musician. This career path in marketing has been a recent change and is a new chapter in my life. I am currently pursuing a second degree and this one will be in Marketing. Though I have not worked for a marketing agency yet, I have many years under my belt in large churches as a worship pastor. I have overseen and managed large groups of people. I have been the oversight for many events and have lots of experience with planning and implementing new strategies and ideas that will relate to people well. I am pursuing a longterm career in marketing, specifically marketing that involves music, social media, video and photography. I have a love and passion for any art form that speaks to a persons heart, eyes and emotions. Thank you for taking the time to review my resume.

Artisan Writers is a company of of songwriters from all around the Dallas-Fort Worth area that I have assembled. Through A/W I help others grow in their abilities as songwriters, artists and musicians. We meet once a week and write songs and share our lives together. We host a big event once a semester to showcase the music, artists and songs that we have written. Artisan Writers has been a great place for me to practice my marketing skills and learn more about how to make a product or service more desirable and approachable. I created our logo and I manage all things �website/social media�. After starting this small startup, I realized how much I loved the marketing side of business. Directly after starting it, I decided to go back to University and learn everything I could about marketing. You can learn more about my work with Artisan Writers on the links below.
