My fan base consists of my wife, some guys I work with and a coupla chicks at Starbucks. I Formed 'CRITTER LABS' in BERKELEY & Emeryville Ca. from 1991 to 1997, a group of 5 artists and musicians,creating and installing MECHANICAL ROBOTIC SCULPTURES,(a movement called DECONSTRUCTION) showing PROJECTION VIDEO ART and playing in INDUSTRIAL EXPERIMENTAL concept BANDS at CLUBS all around the San Fransisco Bay Area, Los Angeles and New York.Ive since retired as working ARTIST but still occasionly dabble in creating art and playing music. IVE BEEN PLAYING DRUMS in BANDS FOR ALMOST 25 YEARS NOW AND HAVE TONS OF STAGE,STUDIO & TOURING EXPERIENCE. Now living in Denver Colorado, I work as a security officer at the Denver Tech Center and am currently building a home with my lovely Asian wife of 3 years,Leily.
