Robert Gilliam Receives Rise and Shine Award

Community Leadership

When our local farmers market faced permanent closure in 2020 during the pandemic, I led the volunteer effort to establish a new 501(c)(3) organization to preserve this community tradition and expand public benefit and charitable programs. Thanks to a dedicated, vibrant community, Carnation Farmers Market is experiencing the highest attendance and vendor sales in its 20 year history. In 2023 I received Empower Youth Network's Rise and Shine Award for Outstanding Community Volunteerism for this inititative.

Making and listening to music are lifelong passions of mine. Here are a few electronic music tracks I recently created.

About the process ▶

Using Audacity for editing, mixing, and mastering, I mashed up content generated by Udio from my original lyrics and custom prompts, with organically recorded music and sounds, to create these tracks.
