About Me

I Hope that you are having an unbelievable month. I love to encourage and inspire others like you. People describe me as positive, disciplined, extroverted, and driven. My #1 Strength from StrengthFinders is FUTURISTIC. Most people know me as Shania Twain's Violin Player. Toured with a bunch of other folks too. Violin will always come first in the career, but I love two other things also: Acting and Public Speaking. I have grown like mad as an artist at The Baron/Brown School of Dramatic Arts in Santa Monica http://baronbrown.com/ and I am represented by Premiere Speakers Bureau for my speaking gigs. The latest is finishing up on my violin solo EP and doing acting auditions in Hollywood every week. Coffee Bean, Father's Office Burger, Urth Cafe, Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles - love the LA digs. Random info about me is that I workout every day and count calories - it's a bit nutty I know. This MySpace page is more a test and see what it's all about. I will add more to this when I make time for it. Time to practice my violin. Face the Fear. Move Towards the Uncomfortable. Go Get 'Em!
