About Me

Since an early age, I have loved to perform. My sister and I were always putting on concerts for our parents in the basement, stealing my mother's cooking utensils. My parents being the supportive people they were, they always came and listened to the racket, then quietly washed the scuff marks off the pots and pans and returned them to the kitchen cabinets. Later, they suffered through years of violin lessons, and my mother gave me several years of piano as well. After several years of classical training, I branched out into guitar and drums, taking up country and rock music. Now, years later, I am proud to say that I have been on or behind the stage (as a tech) for many of the biggest names in music. I have had a chance to meet and learn from many of the musicians I looked up to when I was learning to play.[LOVEMYFLASH]
