I have been a professional performing musician since I was a young boy singing solos with the orchestra in my home state of Kentucky. The only thing I love as much as playing music is writing about music. 

I remember the first time I got paid to sing. I  thought they were pulling my leg. From that moment on, my love for the performing arts never waned. 

Over the years, I had the honor to play in every state in the US with the exception of Montana. I have had the privilege to share the stage with some of the most excellent musicians on earth. 

I have had the distinction of working with many greats in the rock, pop, and jazz idioms including Barry Manilow. 

In 2012 I went back to college, focusing on English composition. After completing my first essay, the professor asked me if I had anything published. He gave me an A+ on his next nine assignments, inspiring my love for writing. 

Other musicians started asking me to rewrite their bios and landing pages. Soon, some of the local establishments where I performed asked me to improve the copy on their sites. But I never considered writing full time. 

Then, in February of 2022, I was diagnosed with HPV-related throat cancer, and I haven't been able to sing since.  

After chemo and radiation, I am cancer free, but my vocal cords may never be the same. 

I am approaching writing from the same standpoint that I come at the music business. I am looking to make friends with people who want to work with me because of my values and standards, to form productive relationships, and to contribute wherever I can.
