About Me


Be what you want, and be who you are....
I'm a certified studio engineer and live sound engineer. Songs need to be given that extra added something. It's the difference between a 'store bought' CD and that 'local band' sound. I mix any/all styles of music, rock, bubble-gum pop, aggressive metal, hip hop, R&B, gospel, electronica... you get the idea. I also do digital restoration, audio post production, and digital mastering/remastering. SAMPLES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
I also work as a real estate agent at Exit Only Realty , and I'm the lead audio engineer at the National Shrine in Washington, DC.

Television Experience:

I'm a perpetual dreamer and optimist with seemingly limitless (and sometimes misguided) energy. I love the 'rush' that life gives, without that, nothing else matters. It's possible to feel that 'rush' daily... all that one has to do is be open. = )
In the words of the immortal Bob Marley, "Everything's gonna be alright..."

Playing guitar, writing music, producing music, studio engineering (especially mixing), rollerblading (no, I'm not gay), skiing, snowboarding, tunnel flying (indoor skydiving) (they also have a myspace page here ), hiking, and traveling.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet a beautiful woman with a soul worthy of being loved. I'd also like it if she had long since outgrown the games that others try to play. A lot of integrity, a dash of charm, and a pinch of talent, and I'd be quick to fall.... Is that too much to ask for??

I've made it so that you have to know my last name or email to be able to add me as a friend. I'm SICK AND TIRED of getting friend requests from webcam sluts!!

Music:

Rock, Progressive Trance, Classical, Country, Rap / Hip Hop, Gospel, Jazz...... I don't care, I love it all. Any music can be powerful or moving, no matter how we classify it.

Movies:

Go see Ballyhoo! the next time they're in town. They're a great group of guys, and they put on a great show too.

Yes I like RJA!

And a little country style for your ass...

Live performance DVDs of incredible music artists.

Television:

TV is bad for the brain!!!!!

Books:

Technical manuals about studio gear or audio editing software. Mix and EQ magazines are good too.

Heroes:

I don't really have any heroes... is that wrong???
