So why this site? Well, the truth is simple. Music has been part of my life off and on for as long as I can remember. I'm really an IT Consultant by day, a regular day job kind of guy, but I just can't seem to stop finding music as my main creative outlet.

A quick summary: played piano 5 years in my middle school and high school jazz band while playing in my church youth group band. I was lead singer and keyboard player in a local band called "Beautiful Simplicity". After that I played at Northwest Community Church for a while.

During that time I played with Jeff Adams and his band (great guys!) at House of Blues, Hard Rock, Universal, Six Flags, and some other great venues. Little did I know I would meet 2 of the guys in my band. I also had the opportunity to sing and produce with Mark Matuszek, a.k.a. Double M. We opened for Stacie Orrico, Erin O-Donnell, Rick Springfield, and other headliners here in O-town.

Another friend, Joe Grandberg, and I co-wrote and produced a couple of dance tracks in 2002 and 2003: "Here with You" performed by Malyssa and "Why" performed by Jocelyn Enriquez were most notable.

So that's the past.

Now I get to play with some amazing guys... those guys that I played with in the Jeff Adams band: Robert Vance (drums) and Greg Martin (guitar), and another talented dude I've met along the way: Phil Ayres (bass). Together we form "The Audience" and always have a great time playing in Central Florida.

I'm also still actively song-writing and producing with local talent.

Lastly, some special credit goes out for the "Fool for Promises" album. I would have never made it without the friendly prodding and production help from friends Mark Matuszek and Randall Shreve (solo artist, former drummer of Rook and GS Megaphone). I owe both of them a great thanks for the hard work, time, and perserverence to get me writing again!

Take care, and thanks for your support!
