About Me

I love music, especially live music. I am a video Engineer/Director and as of late Producer, I mostly do corporate events and award shows. I run and operate and own a small Audio Visual Company (www.avslservices.com). I love to travel and see the world, new experiences and meet all kinds of people along the way. I will update this as my schedule permits. I am also here to network with blues bands from around the country and would like to work with blues club owners to create a Blues curcuit, My goals are to create and market a venue in San Antonio to showcase world class blues musicians and their talents. It's a process in the works. I play the guitar and my influences range from the Edge, Tom Morello, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Albert King, Freddie King, Hound Dog Taylor, Otis Redding, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Buddy Holly, Jimi Hendrix, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Billy Gibbons, B.B. King, and the legend Buddy Guy.
