PTI-PREMIER TALENT INTERNATIONAL: about the owner

About Me

I am a pianist vocalist and composer. I was raised singing with my father in Gospel music. That is where I learned to sing, play piano and write music. I have traveled internationally performing at 5 star hotels all over Asia, Europe and the Middle East since 1994. A little over a year ago I opened my own Entertainment agency: PTI- Premier Talent International. I book talent throughout Asia and the Middle East. By the end of the year we are gearing to open jobs in Europe. For the artists we provide: round trip flight fare, excess luggage reimbursement, airport pick up and drop off, hotel accommodations in the hotel you are performing in or an appropriate apartment near by, meals in the hotel restaurant, drycleaning/laundry, work visa application fees, HIV testing reimbursement and monthly salary paid in dollar. All contracts are for a three month minimun except on our cruise line jobs which vary from one month to two months.
WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR NEW TALENT! If you are serious qualified musician or vocalist and you want to travel internationally and are willing to accept three month contract minimums, please reply to: [email protected].
Join as one of my friends and get monthly job updates.
I opened this agency because in my life as a musican many times I was not treated fairly. Agents took money off the top of the budget then asked for commission. They did not care about me as the artist and in my company I do care about the artist. Everything is put on the table, up front, good or bad, my artists are told the truth. With my years of experience I can and do assist my artists. I have good relationships with my artists where they can call, im, text or email me at any time with questions or problems and I answer and take care of it the best I can. I'm telling you all of this from a musicians point of view what I found was lacking in some other agents. That is why I make it a point to take care of my people. Please don't get me wrong, there are still some good decent agents out there and I can proudly say I work with some of the best but I carefully choose which ones and their jobs they ask me to provide talent for.
Check us out at: PTI-premiertalentinternational.com. We're still off line but expect to be up by the end of the month.
******************
In my life and agency I have ZERO tolerance or time for racist, toxic people who lie, cheat, play games, use others, hurt others, cause problems, pretend to be someone or something they are not, falsely represent themselves, phonies, drama queens or players. Do not apply to my agency if you are one of "THEM". We expect professionalism in PTI artists. I consider my people family and only want to work with and associate with good people who are genuine and responsible. I personally commit myself in my life and business to honesty and integrity. Therefore I cannot accept less from anyone else.
My company mission statement is, "Built on integrity, commited to excellence".

My Interests

Beauty: striving to stay young, fit and healthy, building my businesses and being sucessful, good friends, traveling first class, building my dream home on a lot of land, I love dogs especially the cocker spaniel and the cavalier Prince Charles spaniel and buying my black boxster porche when I'm home enough to drive it.

I'd like to meet:

High quality PROFESSIONAL musicians who are good people, who want to travel the world and make money. CHECK OUT MY PICTURES PROFILE FOR SOME OF PTI'S ARTISTS!

Music:

I like so many kinds of music. Anguun from Indonesia, both of her cd's especially the "Snow on the Sahara CD, Everything Martina McBride ever sang, Keith Urban's "Raining on Sunday", Anastacia's "You'll Never Be Alone", Brian Adams and 80's Rockers like Heart, Foreigner, ACDC, Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart and Aerosmith and old school funksters like Rick James, Zapp Band and Cameo and all the new rock Gospel groups: Newsboys, Mercy Me and Casting Crowns. And I love ethnic types of music like the chinese group: 12 Women and I especially love Arabic music. Their music fascinates me with the rhythms and vocal styles. It has great beats, especially their percussion instrument: the tabla. My Favorite song of all will always be Amazing Grace.

Movies:

I love anything and everything Angelina Jolie has ever filmed. She is my absolute favorite movie star. She is my idea of the most beautiful woman and my role model for beauty. I met her in Bangkok and she was so kind and complimented me on my performance. She had very little makeup on, jeans, white shirt and sandles and was still absolutely beautiful. I like natural beauty, little makeup. I love action, scarie and comedy movies. I'm not into mushy love story type of movies. Unless of course Angelina was in it lol!

Television:

BERNIE MAC IS MY FAVORITE! He makes me laugh. I also like Sopranos, CSI, Law and Order, anything with a lot of action. I also like Biography.

Books:

Patricia Cornwell, Dean Kootz, Sue Grafton, Steven King and Anne Rice are my favorite authors. But I like history books and cultural specific type books like: Memoirs of a Geisha. I like to read other religions "Bibles" so to speak, to understand what they believe and why. And when I'm in a new country I like to read their local newspapers to know about their local lives and politics and books about their country's controversial issues.

Heroes:

My Dad. He taught me everything about my ethics, standards, humanity, about music: how to sing, how to perform, how to compose and helped me write my first song. He was a great gospel song writer. He was nominated for a Dove Award in 1978 for his song, "I'll See You In The Rapture". He set my feet on this path. He passed away September 2, 2005 and I know he is singing with the angels now and all the other gospel music greats. I will always love him, admire and respect him and miss him so much.
