I started playing professionally at the age of sixteen in New England. I moved to Los Angeles when I was twenty and spent the next ten years recording and touring internationally with several recording groups. I never stopped playing but my career as a bass player was put on the back burner when I became a recording engineer in the film and television industry. My wife and I moved to Tampa to be closer to our family in 2021 and I’m finding my way into the music community here.

Embrace Your Passion
