Born and raised in Sugarland, Texas, I graduated from TSU University and became a military medic as well as photographer. After retiring from the military, I worked as a Photographer for the University of Texas San Antonio Institute of Texan cultures for many years. During this time, I became the photographer of the MLK March from the beginning of the march to today (2024).  I write and perform gospel music as well as my own music on a regular basis.  I have worked in the prison ministry for many years performing my music across Texas to uplift souls.
