I am a songwriter with demos of my work. I have been a staff writer for an established Nashville publisher, and I have several songs on contract with major publishers. I have also been teaching songwriting since 1993 for the Dayton/Cincinnati area in affiliation with the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI).
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I sometimes play at the Clermont Inn in Batavia, Ohio, and at the Night Sky in Troy, Ohio. I also play frequently at my church, SouthBrook Christian Church in Centerville, Ohio.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Jim Croce, John Denver, Dan Fogelberg, Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Hugh Prestwood and Richard Leigh (professional songwriters), Kenny Rankin.
