About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get to a warm sandy beach.

ABOUT ME

I am a artist/technician that works on high end t-shirt printing machines. I travel a lot and do consulting, I still can't believe they fly me all over just to talk to people. My heritage is Swiss, my Father traced our ancestry to a small village at the foot of the Matterhorn. I would like to go to this village someday to see if anyone there is still named Salzman.

I also play guitar and write music. I enjoy recording, making videos and doing artwork for fliers and CD jackets. Art for art's sake.

PHILOSOPHY

Positive energy goes a long way and has many effects you will probably never see. I have recently started studying stoic philosophy and I believe it is the key to happiness.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any book written by F. Paul Wilson, independent films that don't have a Hollywood cookie cutter foundation, the kind of music I like can be summed up by anything with good musicianship.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 2 years touring the world with a rock band. It was amazing and frustrating at the same time.

Amazing because we were not tourists, we were working. We got to play venues and meet people that wanted to see us and already liked us. It was great!

But we would play with such a tight schedule that we would come to an amazing city, like Prague, and only have a few hours to look around. All the while not having any guide or transportation. But it was an experience that I would not trade for anything.

In fact it made me want to go back to these places and see them for real. Especially Deutschland, Der Neederlands, Austria and Switzerland. I have learned some German from my travels and I am always looking to improve my skills.

Also we got to play one show in Busan South Korea. I was taken by the place and it's people. I made one lasting friendship and we still talk to this day. So much honor was displayed by our hosts that I instantly loved them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have many interests, philosophical. logical, musical, artistic and creative. I will talk about anything because I adore the arena of ideas. I especially enjoy a fresh perspective from a different culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will take you out and show you all the jewels of Milwaukee if we have time.
