About the Artist

My artists journey started from beginning to learn the drums at the age of 8 and sticking with all the practicing involved, and not really knowing why for a number of years, other than that my parents wanted me to practice and that I liked being part of bands. I liked being part of the group. I formed a rock band in high school with a group of close friends called Day One. I loved being a part of the band and loved that we could decide what music we wanted to play. It was great being a part of the band and I also hoped that girls from my high school would notice me more since I was in the band. Then something happened. I remember the day like it was yesterday. Our band Day One was playing for an event that was hosted by my friend’s family for Harvard University at my friends house when all of a sudden a rush of emotion made me feel like I had never felt before while we were playing a song and it was a feeling that was about the intimacy in the relationships that I felt with the members of the band which was facilitated through the music that we played together. It was a new experience, but I did not know if it was a one time experience or it would occur again. I wanted it to be a part of my life. It’s been many years later since that day in high school. I have found that same feeling in every creative experience I involve myself in. I am also a jazz dancer and composer now. I am a manager and DJ, executive producer and individual artist. Through all of the creative endeavors it is the same. I am driven by the emotional experience and intimate connections I make with the members of a band I am in, the members of a dance group I am in, the audience I reach when I take part in song creation, the relationship with a singer I manage to help her realize her dreams and any and all relationships I am in that involve creativity. Creativity also creates a more intimate relationship with myself and who I am as a person. That’s why I create. It’s a powerful and very real way of forging an intimate relationship with myself and the world that we all share. I have been fortunate enough to work with/done business with some great musicians including: Underground Productions www.bigump.com Rich Cronin, Taryn Murphy, http://www.tarynmurphy.com/fr_main.cfm, Cori Yarckin Grammy winning publisher Mark Meckel (Emmy Lou Harris 2006, The Connection), Nathan Meckel, Burton Collins (Celine Dion), Chrissy, and The Rondo Brothers www.rondobrothers.com I have been involved with songs that have been licensed for Melrose Place, Pop School (Licensed theme song), Masters of Horror, Redbana Dance Audition (video game), Prison Break, Joan Rivers "How'd You Get So Rich" on TV Land.. Chrissy's song Strut which I am involved with has over 1.2 million plays on Iheart Music, formerly Clear Channel Discover New Music. Their has been rotation of Strut on KISS XM 21 (Clear Channel).
