Ode To ADF
June 8, 2025
A few months back, I penned this satire about Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF). It’s a mix of my day job as a developer converging with my passion, music and songwriting. Today I decided to take a swing at updating the drums for it. If you are a software developer who uses ADF, you may find it funny!
The Name More Beautiful
March 28, 2025
Recently I was reading Romans and tears came to my eyes as I just got a great sense of how much God loves me and you. His great sacrifice means great hope for this sinner. I wrote this that same day. I hope it encourages you somehow, some way. This song was released March 28, 2025.
Oh What a Savior (demo)
April 21, 2024
I wrote the first verse of this a couple of weeks back. I tinkered and toyed with it here and there as time allowed. Finally, this afternoon, I worked on it until it became what you hear in this video. I hope you like it.

Tomorrow
May 12, 2021
Recently, I shared this tune with a friend of mine in New Orleans. He told me it was a perfect song for the times. Perhaps Tomorrow is a song I might give to my younger self given the chance. Life can be hard and doesn’t pull punches. One makes mistakes, but tomorrow is a new day! It’s a chance to heal, to move on, to go a new direction.
