POSITION: Trainor and Organist

Because of his undying love for music, he strived hard to be a good trainor to the group. Being a teenager that time over the older members of HKC, he took a lot of time and effort to gain the respect he needed and later made the group sing perfectly in harmony of different voices. He also introduced a lot of new arrangements that were sung not only in the church but out of the town as well, and these includes songs for weddings, concerts and choral competitions. He also trained some other choirs like the Charismatic Choir for El Shaddai and the Children's Choir.
