About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm currently traveling across Canada from Yellowknife to Ottawa!

ABOUT ME

I'm very interested in just about anything - love to explore new things, travel to far away places, meet new people... I'm a singer, actor, carpenter, web designer, love to read books and watch funny movies (I especially like Coen Brother movies!)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in a greater power, but not some old guy with a beard reaching down from heaven. I think that power is shared by every one of us, and we can exercise that power in ways we can't even imagine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's a little town at the western edge of Santorini, one of the most beautiful Greek islands. It almost never rains there, so virtually every evening a large group of people travel up to this little seaside town and settle down on the stone wharves and in the outdoor cafés to watch the most spectacular sunsets. It is breathtaking, and still remains one of my best travel memories,

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been running a floating bed and breakfast for the last 6 years. You can check out my houseboats at TheFloatingBnB.com. My special skill is to create learning tracks for vocalists trying to learn a song. You can check some of my work out at www.vocalharmonies.com
