Life has been an interesting ride for me, I really feel blessed with the opportunities that have come my way. My family is my first priority and I love them dearly. My profession is rockin' because I get paid to be creative. I'm an Art Director/User Interface Designer, own and operate my Graphic + Web Design Business and also work as a Graphic Design Instructor at a local community college in the S.F. Bay Area. I love and have a passion for helping students find their inner-self as up & coming designers. My other profession as a musician has been rockin' as well but its mild success could never pay the bills for the lifestyle my family deserves. I've been fortunate enough to work with some amazing people in the music industry. Recording records, performing in videos, going on the road and gigging every night was a blast and I do miss that from time to time. A lot of people wonder why I still continue to put so much time and energy into being a musician performing at a professional level... IT'S MY HEART AND SOUL, IT'S WHO AND WHAT I AM... LIKE IT OR NOT, I'M IN IT FOR LIFE!
This was my ROAD HOUSE BLUES band 2002-2005 w/ Derek Davis, my brother Eric Pacheco and Kyle Bates, Check it out.
Babylon A.D. was my band in the 80's and early 90's
Babylon A.D. "So Savage the Heart" 1992 (Rare first cut outtake)
Persuaders was my band from 1985-88 that evolved in to Babylon A.D. "Babylon A.D., In The Beginning... PERSUADERS RECORDINGS 8688" now available at Perris Records www.perisrecords.com

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would like network with people interested in Art, Design, Music and Photography, friends I went to school with at all levels, friends in the music business, people who are interested in restoring and collecting vintage drums, students who want to discuss becoming a designer or going to design school, up and coming musicians who want to know about the music business, touring/working musicians, SF Bay Area restaurants, clubs, sports or anything else worth chatting about.

NO BUTT HOLES PLEASE!

P.S. I love the comments from all my friends but all I ask is that you keep the graphics (if any) to 300 pixels wide or I will delete them.

Thanks!
