Finding little success as a country writer, Davis supported himself in the hotel business starting out as a weekend relief bellman. Ten years later he worked his way up to the position of Director of Sales for the Hermitage Hotel, a boutique property in downtown Nashville. He had achieved his goal in the hotel business and left to start Wincorp Public Relations. Wincorp PR worked with many of the city's businesses including the mayors office.
From Wincorp he became Vice President of Sales for the Exotic Car Collection out of Beverly Hills CA. Davis cultivated his contacts in the LA film business and left that company to work as a freelance writer for CJM a production company in Tennessee. He wrote and directed country specials for TV, music videos and corporate videos. He left that company in 2000 and started Winco Media Group with partners David Smith and Mark Oldham - which he heads today. In this new venture, Davis and his crew traveled around the world producing country music specials for Country Music Television and Great American Country. His travels have taken him into war torn Balad 30 miles from Baghdad - Italy - Switzerland - Turkey - England - Abaco Islands - Cayman Islands - Mexico - and many more.
"I saw real poverty in these areas. Some say that the poor in America are rich compared to other poor people around the world… I say "the poor are poor no mater where they live, and they need our help."
Along the way Davis started volunteering in some local prisons by sponsoring concerts for the inmates and working hand in hand with Men of Valor an award winning prison ministry in Nashville. As he worked with inmates he realized that there was much more to serving time an getting back into society. He found that there is no easy way to be released from prison and starting over as a felon.
"Our inmates get out of prison and are rejected by society, so they can't get housing, can't get jobs and they go to the streets to only be picked up and sent to jail for trespassing or loitering - and the revolving door of our prisons continue to swing."
"The challenge today is not new... the harvest is plenty, but the workers are few." Davis explains.
"So, I started building a data base of people who wanted to serve the community and offering them a easy way to do that."
Davis lives in Nashville with his wife of 38 years and is the proud father of two sons and a beautiful daughter in love.
