About Me


So, what's going on?
Well, I made an album for the The RPM Challenge
Until 8/15/2006 I was the Assistant Director of Residence Life @ Daniel Webster College in Nashua, NH and now I'm one of the Apartment Managers for the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH! (I'm so very glad to be out of DWC).
I am an independent associate for USANA Health Sciences and I maintain my own USANA Website through USANA.
I also do a lot of work with bands through my own music company called Big Duck Management . The bands I work with / have worked with are pretty sweet. You should add them!
