About Me

Well, what is there to know about me? Well I love to be outdoors as much as possible, especially on beautiful days. If you get to know me you will know that flip-flops are a big part of my everyday outfit, rain or shine! I love to Hike in the mountains and rock climb. I built my mountain bike into perfection and love to run.The biggest part of my life though, and makes up who I am as a person, is music. Music has guided me through life in ways, I cant even describe. Music has gotten me through the hardest of times, which have been hell for me and has pulled me out of anger, I should be feeling. My father in Nashville was the one that got me started with a trip from Nashville to Michigan to drop off a drum. Djembe is what he called it and I looked at him with a stair of djjjj be W H A T? It is an African drum, (aka Bongo, but not) he said. That damned thing was a resting spot for my keys for a couple years till I was introduced to the: Blue Rock Shoot Cafe. Where I met the brother I had never had, Eric Rynne. Now every Thursday for the last two years of my life, I have been playing my drum there with Eric and have even done a couple of shows with him. If you too are interested in seeing 13-25 different singer song writers, sing beautiful songs of their own or covers of new age songs, like Pearl Jam which is what me and Eric cover sometimes or Incubus, their song drive is the Blue Rocks theme song. Unfortunately R.I.P Blue Rock Shoot Cafe. I am now a Marine and am currently going through my last phase of combat training. GOD BLESS TO THOSE TROOPS WHO HAVE FALLEN AND ARE STILL CURRENTLY SERVING OUR FLAG. I WILL BE IN IRAQ SOON AND ITS A REALITY DAY TRIP I MUST FACE MYSELF WITH EVERYDAY. WISH ME LUCK, AND LISTEN TO MUSIC, FOR MUSIC IS THE GUIDANCE OF MY SOUL I OWE EVERYTHING TO MY MOTHER AND FAMILY IN UPLAND CA AND ALL OF THE MUSIC COMMUNITY WHO SUPPORTS ME ON MY VENTURES. GOD BLESS AND SEMPER-FIDELIS! And there you have it, thats me.
