Grand Poobah of Executiveness” (Executive Director)
I. LOVE. NWA. It’s been home since my kindergarten days at Sugar Creek Elementary (shout out to the Patriots!) Everything I’ve been a part of, from pastoring to breweries to venues to coaching to music, has always been built in community, for community. There’s something so special about NWA – there’s truly a hospitable spirit of helping each other succeed that has lasted through all of the growth and changes. It’s why my beautiful wife Katy and I want to raise our 4 kids here, and why we’ll work tirelessly to seek the welfare of this community. Yes, City Sessions is a music organization. But I’m not interested in ONLY great music. I’m interested in what great music does for the artists and neighbors who live here. I’m passionate about the soul of this place.
