Brief Bio

I am Alex Timothy Favazza, Jr. I was born in Knoxville, TN in Februrary of 1987. I believe it was a Thursday afternoon around 4:30. My personal memory of the event is hazy, but people, namely my parents, have told me that I was quite a large baby with broad shoulders. Due to complications I was placed in ICU for several days. My parents finally paid me off when I was four. By then we were living in Memphis, TN in the house in which I was raised. I now had a baby sister named Amanda--now she's pursuing degrees in ministry and Spanish at Harding University. My father worked as an insurance salesman, and my mother, a medical technologist. My sister and I attended Harding Academy of Memphis where I participated in a variety of activities involving wrestling, band, choir, drama, religious groups, and academic organizations. In 2005 I moved to Murfreesboro, where I live currently, to attend Middle Tennessee State University and pursue a degree in Music Education. I worked at a number of part-time jobs and currently hold employment at St. George's Episcopal Church Nashville, TN. I am student teaching in my final semester at MTSU and look forward to graduating in May. I love getting to get up every day and do what I love. Few people are as blessed as I.
