Devin was born in Denver, Colorado on November 5, 1988. He graduated from Southside Christian School, Fine Arts Center, and the University of Belmont in Nashvile, TN with a Bachelor Degree in Music. He was the Former Founding Music Director of The Musicnasium Music School in Greer, SC which focused on teaching young children the beauty of music.

While at USC Upstate he was Assistant Director: Commercial Music Combo at USC Upstate Commercial Music Program, Director of Jazz Ensemble at USC Upstate Commercial Music Program and Music Director: Commercial Music Ensemble at USC Upstate Commercial Music Program.

Devin was a devoted Son, accomplished music teacher and an amazingly skilled and talented musician. He lived his life doing what he loved, teaching and performing music. He was a beautiful soul, kind, sweet, empathic, wise beyond his years, and always helping others in any way he could including giving you the shirt off his back if needed. Additionally, he was known for his ability to always sense when things were wrong and knew exactly what to say to help others in these situations.

Devin's dedication and work ethic was second to none, he gave every part of himself and took pride it being the best musician possible. Never was there anything to big or to complicated for him to handle. He would always find a way to get it done even if it meant sacrifices in other aspects of life. His work was his passion and his love. He always said it's not work if you are doing something you love. But he worked extremely hard because music meant everything to him. It was his Passion and he loved and lived for it.

Devin meant the world to those around him and he thought the world of y’all too. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Greenville Humane Society in Devin’s honor as he was a huge lover of animals and especially his pug, Jewels.
