ABOUT

I've been playin bass for 23 years and guitar for 21. I'm a very positive minded, easy going, and a laid back kinda cat with a lot of energy, drive, ambition, and integrity. I'm always goofing around and having a great time in life; it's my natural way of being. I'm a responsible guy, yet still really good at having fun. When it comes to music, I live and let live, but for me, I am very quality driven, detail oriented, and I constantly challenge myself to improve. I will never "know it all" and I welcome the evolution of music. I'm not the type to take shortcuts; I prefer to do things the correct way with whatever it is I'm doing. I do figure out ways to be extremely efficient, though. I'm a happy guy and I feel blessed in life. I'd like to start or join a band that focuses on quality and is driven by creating a phenomenal sound that listeners can emotionally attach to and become one with. I'm motivated by the live music lifestyle because it brings with it, awesome experiences, comradery, and memories. In the future, I'd like to look back on the present and pridefully think about how such good times were had. Other interests and passions of mine are my super supportive wife of 15 years, my lil boxer pup, building and dragging custom cars and trucks (minitruckin), drawing and tattooing, motorcycle riding, racing, skateboarding and hiking. I am all about new things and anything fun. I hope this description was descriptive enough. ;)
