For 20 years I have been amazed by the music of The Beatles, the big city of New York and the way guitars work.

After growing up in Florida and going to one of the finest Universities in the country - that would be - University of Florida, I decided to move to the Big Apple, where I was able to pursue my dream of playing music.

For 6 years I played in some of the world's most amazing venues while watching a city - the greatest city - repair itself after September 11th.

To live in NYC during that time and to be a part of the cultural occasion by playing music during the smoldering ashes that once was the World Trade Center has shaped me in more ways than I am even able to understand.

While I was living in NYC, cultivating my craft, during one of the most difficult trials our nation has ever faced, I was also faced with watching my father battle lymphoma - which he ultimately lost, at the age of 54 on May 21st, 2004.

Today, I live in Florida and have developed new passions, new ideals and - you could say - new values... and they are sprawled throughout this 'weblog' - for better or for worse - and for richer or poorer.
