About Me

Here is a test to see if your mission in life is complete: If you're alive, it isn't. (Richard Bach, "Illusions") ************************************************************ *********"The progressive, upbeat intro propels the music over the crashing waves that are pictured. With a U2-esque melody combined with crispy clear vocals, 'Let Go' sends out a striking lesson that teaches listeners to let go of what they love to 'find out what comes back.'" - MusicDishTVhttp://www.dailymotion.com/MusicDishTV/video/1067 2513******************************************************** ************ I'm passionate. I'm creative. I'm grounded. I love all animals, but especially dogs. I enjoy experiencing new cultures. I'm violently allergic to fish and seafood. I'm a juvenile diabetic. I grew up in Montreal, followed by Toronto, New York, Nashville and now L.A. I'm old fashioned when it comes to morals and values. I love frozen margaritas, with salt. I'm positive and upbeat...most of the time.******************************************************* ************** What's YOUR story?My CD "Knockin' On Another Door" is available now at CDBaby.com.
