Wednesday June 22nd, 2016, after leaving a conference, I text two close friends of mine that I finally had a concrete answer to my purpose in life. To Manage and Facilitate Creative Ministry.  Manage, meaning to be in charge of a company, establishment, or undertaking, and to succeed in surviving or attaining one’s aims, especially against heavy odds. To Facilitate or make an action or process easier for others to attend to the needs of someone. I knew I would do this through creativity, and since this realization, I have transformed my life. Currently, I am serving as the Artistic Production Director at Spirit of Faith Christian Center, and I’m married to the love on my life, a dancer named Emerald (because she is a Jewel). I tell you these things, because one experience, with the right person, can give you what you need to change the course of your life.

Maybe it’s hearing just the right song, at the right time. Maybe it’s receiving the assistance you need to make your event one that goes down in history, or maybe it’s attending a production that reminds you of what you love, who you love, and how you can live your life in a way that serves your purpose. No matter what, I say to you, your life is what you say it is. You have what you say you have, and you are who you say you are. Even when it hurts. Even when you’re scared. Even when you’re broken. Even if what’s happening is unfair. You can’t allow the enemy of your assignment to shut you up. You have to speak those things that be not as though they are. You imagine yourself there before you even set foot in the building. You write. You sing. You dance. You learn. You grow. You give.

And if you click on any avenue on this site, I provide a way that may help you in this purpose. Whether your viewing this site in passing, or choose to foster a deeper relationship with me, know that I am here for you. I am hear for your help, I am hear for your healing, and I am here to help you shine.

Let me give your dream a HE(ART)BEAT!
