God took Frank's passion for sound, and how it worked, to pull him into music ministry. After some repelling life trials, God pulled at his heart and showed him a way to use his passion & life experiences to serve in God's kingdom. Frank is an accomplished vocalist, keyboardist, songwriter, & arranger including skills in computer sequencing and sound design. He has served as worship leader & licensed minister with a dynamic church on the south-side of Indianapolis for over ten years. Frank has had the privilege of having his original songs sung by churches in other countries, used in churches for their Easter pageants, and placed on an inspiring DVD project next to some world renown Christian recording artists.
Frank's music is been described as Genesis meets Michael W. Smith. Music with passion and a purpose. Utilizing creative technologies and the many colors of the sound palette, Frank produces musical environments that frame the lyrics from his heart and life experiences.
"I have been around the block as it's said, and the journey that God has led me on has taught me to value this moment, with an eye on the future, using wisdom from the past. My desire is to walk faithfully each and every day - even in the little things - and to be an example of God's awesome, grace filled love. I don't always succeed but I know that God will always help me up when I fall."
