About Me

Music is my passion. But my first loves are Jesus and my nieces Mia and Sofia. I am blessed with an amazing family and group of friends that all keep me in check and grounded. I am thankful for everything I have and don't have. Simply want to get through this crazy journey by giving more than I expect in return.
I play bass guitar (electric/upright) for several different groups. Have been blessed with many great opportunites and experiences and hope to add to those in the near future. I play a few different styles including blues, jazz, rock, latin, world, gospel, country etc.
Thank you for stopping by and checking stuff out. Hope to get to know you better someday. Please feel free to drop a line sometime. And one more thing... in every note that I play, there is a huge part of my nieces Sofia and Mia. They are "la bomba atomica".
