Leading worship for the First Friday Mass during the 2019 CALL Conference at The Grammy Museum.
Aside from my own songwriting and performing, I find tremendous joy in leading praise and worship in churches and religious settings. I've been a regular cantor and music director for a weekly Sunday liturgy since 2015, have served as a worship leader for over 30 retreats, and I have been singing praise and worship music as a minister since 2008.
Most recently I was blessed to lead worship with my band at the Grammy Museum for the Catholic Association of Latino Leaders (CALL) Conference in September 2019.
Worship Leading Experience
- weekly music directing and cantoring for Sunday liturgy
- cantoring and leading worship for retreats, conferences, festivals, and gatherings
- XLTs & Eucharistic Adoration
My Catholic Christian faith deeply influences my music, my songwriting, singing, along with all other aspects of my life. Experiences of God are woven in my lyrics. When I sing, whether it be worship music or secular music or anything in between, singing is prayer for me.
