About Me

Hey guys,Born & raised in St. Paul, MN. Made the move to the Great New York City twelve years ago.. and lovin' it! Live in Hells Kitchen, but I do my thing wherever, whenever! Happy for the awesome musical opportunities that have come my way. In between, I've been learning, practicing, falling, learning some more and continuing to ROCK ON!!! Playing shows from NYC to LA & places in-between---props to the Mid-West! In the past, you'd catch me as a solo acoustic act, but these days-- I've been blessed to be backed by some Kick Ass NYC bands ("The Hucklberryz", "Alpha Dog", "The Classix", "Acoustic Adventure," & of course, Jim Wacker & the boys at "Keenan's Piano Bar"-- shouts to Keenan's in the Bronx)! Now days I try to avoid the solo thing & play shows with different musicians. I've had fun playing w/an awesome NYC band "Satisfaction Pony" & had the privilege of working w/ some amazing artists/Producers & DJ'S-- Lenis Guess, Matt (Dr.) Fink, Moogy Klingman, Darius Ditullio, Boz Metzdorf, Charlie Pett, Mike Buckley, David Burton Morris, Mike Sosna, Joe Kross, DJ ZzZzZz, DJ Mr. Biggs, DJ Miestro & many others. Consistent encouragement from VH1's "Save the Music" songwriting competition keeps it real!VH1 "Save the Music" Song of the Year: *Runner Up: Sept 2007/ Nov & Dec 2006 *Honorable Mention: December 2008/ August 2007/ April 2005/I'm so grateful to be a musician & hope to continue to write, play, carry a message of hope & SHAKE THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
