Born in California, earliest memories are of Indiana, and I was raised in the Tampa Bay area- South Tampa, to be exact. As a puppy I remember trying to learn the theme song to “Dr. Zhivago” on the guitar, and I may have taken lessons for about a week, but after hearing Boots Randolph, my real love was the saxophone. Until college, when it became very clear to me that the guitar was more important than the sax- many apologies to my saxophone instructor. Nothing personal.

So I’ve been playing for a LOT of years, but not much of it on stage. There was a recording project many years back that produced an album titled “Quest to be Normal” financed by a very good friend, and there’s talk of putting something else together. Beyond that, I’m just trying to keep things in balance- my wonderful and supportive family, my career, and my music! And it is an honor to be involved with such a great group of people that make up this band- Kickin’ Again!
