Hey, what's up, I am a not so average working musician living in Richmond, VA. I moved up here 7 years ago to become a recording engineer. In that time, I've gotten to record, tour and do live sound for regional bands, run my own recording studio, and have written and recorded music with my own band, Switched-On (more on that below) as well as several solo compositions. I married my high school sweetheart Mandy, 4 1/2 years ago, and this past July we had our first daughter, Sydney Grace. Becoming a parent is one of the most exciting things to ever happen to Mandy and I. Every day is a gift seeing her grow and change. It is truly remarkable and a blessing to have them both in my life. I am also fortunate to be playing in a real rock band again. After several years of being locked in the studio not playing with other musicians I was thrust into an offer I couldn't refuse. I formed Switched-On with some like minded individuals who were tired of all of the wussy emo, and horrible nu-metal that had taken over the airwaves. It was time for a rebirth of rock and roll satisfaction. I went back to my roots and starting listening to bands that I had grown up listening too and started playing bass guitar again.
