The Clinton, Oklahoma native’s career witnessed growth in 2007 when he became a part of Warner Music Nashville. He then joined as a supervisor for the staff members of the A&R, helping him to build a strong relationship with all the artists from the music industry.

He had once addressed his interest in music in an interview, saying that his grandparents were an inspiration for the same. He said that he spent many hours at the farm and then turned on the radio to enjoy the Top 40 songs. He also revealed that he never knew anything about the work of a record producer and never saw a studio.

When he was a student at Oklahoma State University, he started doing small jobs and joined the Audio Visual Center located inside the campus. His career took a different turn at one point and he was approached by the best producers of Nashville to work on their sessions.
