About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am on the road to jazzy NY!

ABOUT ME

I am practicing lots of music. I played in 3 bigbands and one pop-group called "Griswold" (like the Chevy Chase Family).
Today I'm workin in a salsacombo and I'm doin my own stuff, whatever that is...;-)

But I am open-minded and also
interested in sports, theatre and movies.

I'm a bit of everything...

PHILOSOPHY

Relax and enjoy
