Tyler Edwards Director of Tech Services

Bio
Tyler holds a B.S. in Broadcast Communications from the University of Tennessee, with a minor in theater. In his position at FBC he appreciates the opportunity to impact people’s lives through media, and he loves to create experiential environments. He’s easy to spot during CQ because he’s the test dummy who is either hanging from the ceiling or jumping out of rafters to test special effects. His response when people ask about his work is always, “If it plugs in, I probably have something to do with it.” FBC is his home church. He’s been here since birth, so he thinks it’s pretty awesome to serve on staff here!
Tyler and his wife, Claire, have two boys: Brandon and Michael. In his spare time Tyler enjoys cooking, working on cars, building computers, lighting design, and long walks on the beach…hahaha…
