About Me
I have played in countless bands since I was 12. My first successful band was No Need. We traveled extensively in our 6 year run as a band, playing everywhere from Mexico to Florida, to New York to Canada. We recorded a few albums in New York City with a producer Werner F (The Stills) and released the albums independently, even though we had a few offers from major labels. No Need has played arenas in front of crowds as large as 10,000, and has played with Avril Lavigne, Eve6, Simple Plan, Pink, BBMak, and many others. We were also involved in a nationwide promotion with General Mills, Nickelodeon and Jive Records, in which two of our songs were included in a compilation CD that was inserted in over 5 million General Mills cereal boxes. ____________________________________________________________
_____I was a founding member of Attracted To Miss, which includes Shane Henderson (Valencia) & Sean Quilty (Procession Came Opposite). We released a full length album "In My Younger and More Vulnerable Years," and an e.p. on Pumpkin Eater Records. We played many shows in the Philadelphia area and toured the east coast. We are all currently busy with other projects, but we still make time to play an annual show, and we recently recorded 3 new songs.

_____I played in the Kate Dovelyn Band in 2004/2005, who had a large fan base in Philadelphia. We recorded a few songs with producer Bret Alexander from The Badlees, and guitarist Aaron Fink from Breaking Benjamin. We opened for nationwide acts such as Something Corporate and played a concert outside the Philadelphia Art Museum. We were also on a nationwide television show on Comcast in early 2005.

In August of 2005, I moved to Las Vegas to join a new and upcoming band Valentine, and to further my career as a bass player. We played extensively in Vegas and California, and played at Qualcom Stadium 3 nights in a row.

In Las Vegas I met Kenny Rogers' nephew Jared Rogers. We completed two U.S. tours and I continue to write, record, and occasionally tour with him. I played bass on Jared Rogers' full length album with the Kenny Rogers' band and also co-wrote many of the songs with Jared.

I am currently back on the east coast in the band AMONG CRIMINALS, which is a mix of rock, reggae, latin, and world groove. We have been a band since October 2006, have played over 500 shows, and have released two full length albums "Kill the Myth," and "Happy History."
