About Me

I have loved music since I was a little kid and I grew up on AM radio, 45's & my older sisters album collection. When I was in the 5th grade I decided that I wanted to start playing guitar primarily because of ELVIS and the BEATLES. I took guitar lessons for about 6 months and then I heard KISS and it was all over. So, I decided like a lot of young players who needs guitar lessons I just want to learn songs. For the next few years of my early playing I was glued to listening to and learning ACE, JOE PERRY, TED NUGENT, etc.. and then came EDWARD!!!!! I played music with a lot of my friends in the neighborhood and later played in a cover band that had some small success. Today I'm a Christian and a active member of my church. I play in a couple of praise bands. I'm also going through a divorce this year which is hard, but I'm making it. I have two amazing kids that are my life. I have a career that I love and that I'm committed to. I write music with several very talented people and do side projects with them as well. I have just recently completed a solo CD that is all instrumental that I wrote and play all the instrumentation. I'm currently working on two other projects one I hope to release late of next year. I have also enjoyed ART. It has been a love of mine for many years as well and recently with the prodding of my biggest fans (my kids) I've decided to start drawing again, mainly famous musicians. Well my music and my art are featured on my MYSPACE page and I hope some of you enjoy what I have done. Well thats enough about me, but just remember this, GOD likes a joyful noise and I think I've managed to do that.
