I am a professional composer in San Diego, who, along with my composing partner, Dr. Eric Nedelman, write mainly Instrumental Background pieces for use in Film, T.V. and other media, in our respective Professional Home Studios; I guess it doesn't hurt that I'm an absolute Classic Movie Buff!Eric and I are currently polishing our new demo of material, which will hopefully be available by early 2009, as soon as it can ALL be Mastered & Burned to CD. Snippets from this new music (realised mainly via the ULTRA Professional sounding Vienna Symphonic Library Samples!) will be uploaded & rotated on our DKW Musicworks MYSpace site, as soon as we can finish, mix, and burn it!I'm an avid Natural Bodybuilder who works out religiously 5 days a week in my home garage gym (I get through my workouts a lot faster, during the Winter!!).I weighed in at 340 Lbs. when I graduated from SDSU in the summer of 1992, and I knew I had to do something before I killed myself. Also, I felt like such a hypocrite, being such a Huge Women's Bodybuilding fan since the days of Lisa Lyon on. So I slowly, but surely, started exercising, and dieting, and have been able to get down to around 190 Lbs.(still want to lose about 35 more). With my sweet tooth, it will always be a constant battle; But my sincere love of working out should enable me to stay on top of things.And though I NOW Pump Iron mainly as a FUN Hobby, I take my workouts VERY seriously- My Gym setup of a Pro Form 640 Multi-Station Bench; Northern Lights Preacher Curl, Calf Raise, & Leg Extension Benches; various Ivanko Olympic Plates, & Dumb Bells; BOSU Ball; & Schwinn 113 Upright Exercise Bike, ensure I can get in a complete workout, without having to go out to a Pro Gym. The only drawbacks are not having a spotter,and currently being unable to add too many extra Quarters; But I'm constantly working on building up my Ivanko plate collection(EXPENSIVE, though!).The ONLY supplements I use are Potassium, Glucosamine-Chondrotin, ON Whey Protein,Parmount Supplements Pure Creatine,Forslean, and 2 Iron pills a week, since I only eat yellow veggies (corn, Corn, and more CORN!);Whole Foods Organic, FYI. I promise to post more pics, as soon as I can "Shanghai" Eric with his Digital Cam & Scanner! ("Veggie Update": I've added Whole Foods Organic Broccoli to my Menu!)From June 1992, when she suffered a Heart Attack, until her passing on May 26, 2000, I was Caregiver to my Dear, Sweet and Stoic Mother, 24/7. But I wouldn't trade a minute of that time, nor would I have made a different choice; After all, she took care of me 1st! She was a Single Mom, which is why I have the utmost admiration for Single Mom Iron-Pumpers, since I know it MUST be hard to find that extra time!! She also happened to be my BEST friend, as well as the BEST "Life Coach" I'll ever know, and I try to put her lessons to use in my life, DAILY! So, although I'm a bit of a "Late Bloomer" in my own Life and Career, I'll have to coin that ol' phrase, better late than NEVER!!I'm a shy, but very affable guy,who stays content by heeding Mom's Best sage advice to emphasize the "Little Things In Life";Who believes in treating people equally, with kindness and respect; And by my actions, hope to remind people that,no matter how hopeless things may seem to be in the world today, it's NOT hard to be basically NICE!
