About Me

Ok so uhhh...... I'm 5'7" tanned, dirty blonde hair, blue eyes. I live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Born and raised in Winnipeg Manitoba where I lived all my life and worked as a musician for years, I moved to Toronto early 2008 to begin working with a band called My Darkest Days.
We are currently writing a record and getting ready to tour.
I love to write, record and play music. I'm generally very easy going. I love the outdoors, and traveling to new places.
I've worked as a freelance musician for different bands for years.
Most recently I wrote and recorded a 6 song EP with my band Black Rail . Things took an interesting turn in a good direction. We are now involved with different projects and hope to work together again some day.
I've also written for a band called Blush which is here on myspace.
In 2005 I toured with HURST featuring the front man of Econoline Crush Trevor Hurst who co-wrote a record with former Collective Soul guitarist Ross Childress.

Heroes:

One of the saddest stories ever told!!! "Dimebag" Darrell Abott guitarist for famed metal band Pantera was shot dead in a club while playing a set with his post Pantera metal band Dammage Plan. The shooter, a derranged fan who blamed Dime for the demise of his favourite metal band. It just goes to show you how easy it is to fall victim to something so surreal!!
May you REST IN PEACE Dime!!!
