Putnam Praise Team:
Music is a major part of my life. I have played various instruments for the Putnam Praise Team including: acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and electric bass.

Ceramics:
I began teaching ceramics at Greystone in 2007 and I fell in love with it. Ceramics helped me better understand and grasp the elements and principles of design. I continue to do pottery in my spare time.

Videography and Photography:
My interest in videography began in 2006 when I started working for the Gardner-Webb University Phototeam. It is something I have been doing since. I also enjoy photography.

Graphics:
I have just started to take classes in graphic design and web publishing and have enjoyed them.

Volunteer:
I have done various volunteer projects with my church. In Mexico I had the opportunity to help in the building process of a local orphanage. In Charleston I had the priveledge to work with and minister to youth from my church. Through these experiences I have been able to work with people from different cultures and backgrounds and learn what it takes to be a team player.

At CCC I took AutoCAD I, AutoCAD II, and Architectural Drafting I. I am certified to design single family homes.

Gardner-Webb University:
At GWU I am currently working on my bachelors degree in Electronic Publishing. Gardner-Webb has given me many opportunities to gain experience in videography, digital media convergence, and photography.
