How long have you been associated with Sacred Winds? Since 2004.
What is one thing you enjoy about being a part of Sacred Winds? It is hard to identify just one thing I enjoy about being a part of Sacred Winds. I love being able to play my instrument with such great musicians, but I also love the people and the atmosphere that comes from making music for a higher purpose.
What is your most memorable experience with Sacred Winds? My most memorable Sacred Winds experience so far has definitely been the New Orleans tour. Between wonderful meals, unforgettable spiritual moments (both on and off the stage), bus breakdowns, and wiffle –ball games, that was an amazing week that created new friendships and strengthened old ones.
What would you tell someone who is attending their first Sacred Winds event? Be prepared to experience both music and worship as you never have before.
