CURRENT MISSION

Happiness!!!

ABOUT ME

I love to get outside whenever possible. I have a wonderful, beautiful girlfriend. Composing music is my artistic focus, but being outdoors is bliss. Now to combine the two. (Too bad my main instrument is piano.) :)

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life for enjoyment and experiencing new things. Also, to hopefully leave some decent music behind (I have two solo CDs of piano music I composed). AND I love trying to be the best father possible.
