He sings for weddings, parties, restaurants, and on the streets. He has performed on the streets of places such as Boise, Idaho, Salt Lake City, Utah, Denver, Colorado, and New York City, New York.

In December of his senior year, he started performing on the streets by singing Christmas carols for the holidays.
