After taking piano lessons, he also added drums and guitar to his growing collection of musical competencies. "I’ve always been a big believer in pursuing what you’re passionate about," he stated. "I think God gives us all passions and talents, and ultimately, He wants us to use those for His glory. And since I happen to love music, I guess I always knew I’d do something with it."
