About Me

I am a jazz trumpet player in the Baltimore/Washington DC area. I have been with the US Navy Commodores Jazz Ensemble since 2004 and in the Navy as a musician since 1997. I live in Annapolis, MD with my wife , Mary, and my two boys, Nathan and Ryan. As for my past, I grew up in Belleville, IL. I also attended Eastern Illinois University, where I...um... never wasted any time or blew anything off. Really. Anyway, I couldn't be happier with my life right now! I've been blessed with the oppurtunity to play with some wonderful musicians over the years, some well known and many not so well known, but wonderful just the same!
