Overview
I fell into content creation. Growing up, I had my sights set on becoming a Marine. Why? There is few of them and they are all proud. As a young, southern teenage boy full of testosterone and dreams of protecting his country, this was the ideal situation. Medical complications crushed that dream, so what now? While I was sulking in the death of that dream, I ended up watching some travel videos on Youtube and thought, "hey that would be cool to do". The next day, an ad for Full Sail University popped up on Google pitching the idea of studying Media Communications. Hook. Line. Cha-Chi

I fell into content creation. Growing up, I had my sights set on becoming a Marine. Why? There is few of them and they are all proud. As a young, southern teenage boy full of testosterone and dreams of protecting his country, this was the ideal situation. Medical complications crushed that dream, so what now? While I was sulking in the death of that dream, I ended up watching some travel videos on Youtube and thought, "hey that would be cool to do". The next day, an ad for Full Sail University popped up on Google pitching the idea of studying Media Communications. Hook. Line. Cha-Ching $ (tuition ain't no joke) They got me at the perfect time so I enrolled and learned the basics of Media Communications online while entering the Atlanta video scene. Through a mix of grit, hustle, right time right place, Gods grace and an woman going into labor early (crazy story), I was able to work with some of the most influential brands in the world. The NFL, MLB, Bose, Chickfila, University of Kentucky and Clemson, Porsche, LinkedIn, Slack, and many more. To say it's been a crazy ride already is an understatement. So that was all the past, "what are you doing now ?" you make ask. Glad ya asked. Throughout my journey, I met a stud in the B2B space, as he launched his company, we started to work together. That relationship deepened and I eventually joined his company to Operate it and lead the Services division. After two years of grinding the business was ready to make a shift and I exited to spend more time with my family. Now I serve as the Director of Communications at my local church here in Florida. These last 10 years have been crazy, here's to an insane next 10. (If I can help in any way or you are interested in the early birth story, slide in those dm's)
