When I was 13 I took a few lessons but as soon as I could pick out and play the bass lines of my favorite Alice Cooper or Aerosmith tunes I was on my way to developing my own ear, tone and pounding style.

At 22 I joined a Heavy Rock band called Harpo for two and a half years. This band recorded and released several indie cd’s.

I decided at age 24 to make the jump and move from Pennsylvania to Los Angeles. I immediately began recording and touring the world with some of rocks major artists a few of which were Prong and Jake E. Lee… I’ve also played or jammed with some of today’s premier drummers including: Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Dean Castronova(Ozzy Osborne), Nick Menza (Megadeth) Craig Neilson (Flotsam and Jetsam), and Eric Singer(Kiss/ Alice Cooper).

In 2002 I signed a contract with WASHBURN GUITARS and recorded a few CD’s and 1 live DVD. One of the latest disks was produced by Pat Reagan ( Kiss, Deep Purple) called “Prong - 100% live” I recorded using my Washburn basses on all of these titles.

My latest projects are still on the heavy side of rock. So be prepared and expect good things to come in the very near future.
