About Me

I live in the present. I plan for the future. I learn from my past.
Hello and God bless.
Thanks for visiting my MySpace page.
Here's a little about myself. I fell in love with the trumpet when I was a teen and have been playing it ever since.
I've been involved in the music ministry playing in churches, including the one I go to now in Hoboken NJ. Now playing consistently for the last 7+ years, and working on my first cd of Christian instrumental (trumpet) music, which will have a mix of different music styles such as, Latin, Tropical, Jazz, Pop and R&B.
In addition to playing at my local church I also play at different Christian music events as a sideman, often playing a song or two as a soloist. I help out my good friend and Christian Recording Artist Samuel Lopez Bernal whenever he has a concert or other music event.
