I started on the sax in fourth grade, and then the guitar at twenty.  Songwriting came shortly later. I played in a couple bands through college at Penn State and IUP and then started doing solo gigs which is where I picked up live looping.

After graduating from IUP, I moved back to State College, married, started gigging full time and then recorded two solo albums in a home studio.

Eventually I started playing in different projects, joining The Nightcrawlers and hooking up with Ted Mccloskey and the Hi Fi's.

My wife and I have two wonderful boys and I'm a stay at home Dad during the day.  When I'm not playing with the boys or playing music I enjoy fly fishing for wild trout on the world-class streams of central Pennsylvania.
