1. Beginning
1.1. Childhood Influence
1.1.1. I come from a very musical family. My father was in a band, and I accompanied him to all of his rehearsals and gigs, long before kindergarten even. I was a roadie, or a protege.

1.2. Ive been playing piano and guitar since childhood. In my late teens through my 20's into my 30's I played in many rock and roll bands, doing both covers and originals. Mostly I played Keyboard and synth. Leading up to studying at Full Sail I was determined to chase down my dream of scoring movies. I left the band I was in, and honed my craft. I for the first time in my life, took piano lessons and learned how to read music. I dedicated 100% of my free time towards achieving my goal. I spent many sleepless nights composing and mixing. Developing my sound.
2. Middle
2.1. Music is a crucial component in motion picture. It becomes the story. Music Is not only an enhancer, but it is a character
2.2. Music in motion picture, whether it be a feature film, documentary, or commercial, is responsible for setting the emotion. It evokes joy, sadness, fear, excitement, angst, anger, and much more.
2.3. Timeless music stays with you forever. It is able to bring you back to a moment in time. In motion picture, this is a key element in a great production.
3. Message
3.1. I am a film music composer and producer, with a story to be told.
3.2. Music not only enhances motion picture, it tells a story. It is a character unto itself.
3.3. Music is what evokes emotions

3.4. The reason I am the one to deliver music to your projects is because of my unique style. Bridging the past, present, and future in my compositions. The blending of orchestral sections with analog synthesizers. No methods are excluded. And with a complex sound layering system in my productions, along with interesting melodies and rhythms, my music has a sound previously unheard.
