Born in Edmonton, I grew up in Ottawa and Toronto, and have also lived in Montreal twice, as well as Vancouver about three different times.
A singer and/or guitarist in various bands, I was a past winner of the FACTOR Professional Publishers & Songwriters Demo Award (whatever that's worth), and have played and toured with top quality musicians along the way.

Currently, I play guitar with former Hollywood Records Recording Act . I'm also working on a solo project as a singer/songwriter. The songs on this page are either newer or older recordings from my solo projects.

Prior to that, I played guitar and co-wrote songs for Vancouver Power Pop Singer/Songwriter .  Recently, a few of the tracks from this CD were picked up for Film and TV placement, most notably the song 'Stay If You Want' on the Biography Channel's: 'The Woody Harrelson Story', and 'Jude Law' episodes.

Have you performed in front of an audience?

I spent quite a few years on the road previously (with various bands), and my most recent band plays a show here and there.

Your musical influences

Too many influences to list really. I lean more towards music with strong melody.

What equipment do you use?

ESP, Epiphone and Takamine guitars, Line 6/Bogner amps.
