The first thing you should know about me is that I love Jesus. I also don't like to write bios that sound like I copied it right from Wikipedia. I was born and raised in a very rural area in southwest Wisconsin. Go Packers! I started playing guitar at age 15 and began leading worship for a youth group at 16. That was many years ago. In 2007 I helped start a band called Finding Fortress. After varied success and drama through an opportunity to move to Nashville we fell apart in 2011. Through it all I now see God was saying now is not the time or place.
