JOHN FARIS was born in Sacramento, California and has lived there his entire life. From as early as elementary school, John has been fascinated by everything from computers to cameras to music, all of which he spent time exploring, studying, and eventually creating.

In 2021, John came to know Jesus Christ through the evangelism of some of his dear friends. John gave his life to Christ, is now a professing Christian, and currently attends and serves at Arcade Church in Sacramento. His relationship with Christ has come to be the biggest inspiration in his art, and his desire to create comes from his desire to use his gifts to glorify God.

John currently does freelance audio, visual, and lighting work for different venues and groups across the greater Sacramento area. Additionally, John offers his services as a photographer and videographer to his local clients. On the side, he maintains and develops various side projects, including the @imvozhd YouTube channel and the Wired Worship blog and podcast.

John has a heavy emphasis on supporting the media and production needs of Christian ministries. John offers sound advice and consultation for churches and other groups, as well as working alongside said ministries to provide technical support and front-line expertise.

In his free time, John enjoys spending time with friends and family, playing board, card, and video games, travelling, fishing, and playing disc golf. John’s favorite Bible verse is Colossians 3:1-4. Above all, John wants to use his platform to create work that glorifies God and helps others come to know Jesus Christ.
