About Me

I'm a jazz musician! My life is centered around that. Playing gigs, rehearsals, teaching, everything about being a musician is what drives me. Outside of music I am a fan of Movies and television (bad movies can be great, bad tv usually sucks). I usually spend my weekends at a local establishment called the Dutch Goose, playing pool and having fun with friends. I'm a big Sharks fan. WOOOO HOCKEY FOR THE WIN!! And I am known to play a computer game which shall remain nameless (don't need to reveal my dorkness tooooo much). I'm passionate about the things I find worthwhile, such as my friends, music, art (all forms), and of course, networking websites.

My Interests

Jazz, playing some Pool, Hockey, Badminton, Chillaxin with my friends, particularly at the Dutch Goose!!
