A Yamaha Performing Artist and Posi-Tone Records signee, Sencalar has performed with artists including Dee Dee Bridgewater, Christian McBride, Michael Bublé, the Temptations, and the Four Tops. Born in California and raised in Texas, Sencalar studied at Texas State University, the University of Texas at Austin, and Michigan State University.
