I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I dance. I climb. I make music. I do massage. I multi-task. I talk when I sleep. I am impulsive. I am not easily fascinated. I am a perfectionist. I think way too much. I take a lot of things to heart. I don't believe in war. I love making people smile. Sometimes I like to root for the bad guy. I'm more comfortable giving than taking. I am a tough nut to crack. I also throw parties:
YOU CAN ALSO FIND ME ON THESE SITES:
Family Productions Tribe Zaadz
In addition to my involvement with Family Productions, I have been a certified Natural Therapeutic Specialist since 1998. I became imediately facinated with the concept that music is a very powerful medicine. That is why I didn't want to use the generic new age music most massage therapists use. I began to plan out intentional mixes that I could use to invoke deep trance states with my clients. I have since shared these mixes with other therapists who have reported great results!
Here is an assortment of my multi genre dj mixes for your listening enjoyment:
/// Ambient / Dub / Psychill / Experimental / IDM / Breaks ///
"ANOTHER WORLD - DUB SESSIONS"
"ARE WE DREAMING YET?"
"THE ETHEREAL DIMENSION"
"STARSONG RISING"
"COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS"
You can also find some more music at familymoons.com

Mikey Fisher and I are working together on original music under the name Future Simple Project.

I don't know my dad at all though. I am especially thankful for my Grandma and Grandpa and for everything they have done for me. I have a lot of great friends in my life but there are a few who have made me a better person just because I know them. Shout-outs to Shaylin, Bruce, Sean, Mikey, Joe Savage, Justin G. AJ, Johnathan and Buddha Bomb! You have all been the best friends a guy could ask for.
