I am best known as the founder and CEO of
The Management Agency, an artist development and management company based in Jacksonville, FL. As an artist manager I get to meet a lot of really great people, hear some incredible music, and see some neat places.
I have been leading others for over 23 years as a worship leader, conference speaker, associate pastor, business administrator, road manager, consultant, office manager, and corporate development administrator. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism/English Literature in 1981 and went on to graduate school, attending The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. I graduated in 1985 with a Master of Divinity in Christian Education/Church Business Administration. I have served numerous churches and ministries across the country. Prior to founding The Management Agency in 2005, I was manager and administrator for Paul Wilbur (recording artist with Integrity Music) in Jacksonville, FL.
As a conference speaker, I like to utilize my years of experience in the church and business worlds to help others develop a mature understanding of their calling. Topics I speak on include Group Conflict Management, Team Concepts and Group Dynamics, The Theological Basis for Worship In The Local Church, World Awareness and How Music Touches the Nations, The Calling of A Worship Leader, What Is Worship?, What Makes a Good Leader?, and What Makes a Good Follower?
I regularly consult with touring artists and bands providing career counseling and developing customized management plans that are strategically implemented to help take their ministries to new levels. I am available as a conference speaker addressing topics including leadership issues, career development, and ministry planning and development. I also work with individual churches and ministries in setting up their offices, administrative systems, and team & leadership development.
Internationally, I have ministered in nations including Israel, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Nigeria, Ghana West Africa, the U.K., El Salvador, Mexico, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Canada. My specialized understanding of the contemporary music ministry coupled with formal training in church business and ministry administration provides me with the ability to help others see the Kingdom of God come in power on the earth through their own ministries!
