Who I am

Co-founder, StarsForever M.Div. student Founder, Vanguard Proclamation Studios Production Director, Beyond Church

I build content systems for messages that matter; and I'm writing a book for the people those messages are for.

I'm a creator, content strategist, and digital media producer in Northwest Arkansas. I help churches, ministries, Christian creators, and mission-driven brands who refuse to be ignored, with social strategy, storytelling, and production, so the messages that matter reach the people they were made for: people outside the church, beyond the Christian niches most content never escapes.

More than anything, there's the book, a letter to my generation, written for the youth who are struggling and need hope.

The Letter · My first book

Facts or Cap.

Written in Gen Z vernacular. Destiny is on the line. Redeem your story.

My generation can smell a sales pitch from a mile away. We grew up online, we've heard every promise, and we've fact-checked most of them. This is a letter for those who care, written like a text thread conversation, an invitation to hope, riddled with Gen Z slang, with prose desperate for the revitalization of society.

“It's not a for-you page with endless scroll-stopping content. It's a genuine message to you. From my soul to yours.”

Set to release July 2026. Sample chapters and pre-order coming soon on the book's own site.

    Vanguard Proclamation Studios

    My Studio · The work I love most

    My creative media company, and my favorite work. Producing viral short-form media with creators like Bryce Crawford and Cia Cloud, and helping faith-based creators, churches, and mission-driven brands turn their message into clear, consistent, Gospel-centered content.

    Christian Content Creator

    A video a day since 2021

    Since 2021 I've posted at least one video a day, short-form videos, devotionals, carousels, and quote graphics that turn spiritual ideas into social-first content. Showing up every single day for years is the discipline most creators skip; it's where the reps, the reach, and the voice came from.

    Red Thread Project

    Short-Form Film · Content Strategist & Producer

    Led by Cia Cloud

    Red Thread travels to remote parts of the earth the gospel hasn't reached and trains local youth in digital evangelism so the work continues after the team leaves. As content strategist and producer, I shaped and produced the piece carrying its story and mission.

    Beyond Church

    Production Director · In-House

    My primary role was Production Director for in-house, leading live production and the weekly in-person experience with a standard of excellence service after service. This August marks three years on the team: less a viral highlight reel than a long, faithful season of showing up and doing the work well.

What I believe

The convictions behind the work.

01

Messages matter.

The Gospel, a mission, a calling, these aren't just content. They're the most important things being said, and they deserve to be communicated well.

02

Consistency beats perfection.

One perfect post a month doesn't move the needle. A clear, repeatable system does. I help build systems that make showing up easy.

03

Digital is the new front door.

Most people meet your church, brand, or message online before they ever walk through a door. That first impression should be intentional.

04

Strategy serves the mission.

Every piece of content should serve a purpose and point people somewhere that matters.
