When I was a young adult, I enrolled in a music program at the University. It took one semester to show me I knew nothing about music. I graduated from another program and pursued another career. Then after a generation, my values changed. I decided to learn music and pursued educating myself. I made some lifestyle changes, acquired two Graduate degrees and I was certified as a Modern Musician from the program at Berklee School of Music. I have been composing and arranging my music for the past five years. I have brought together my life experiences to create songs to enhance the lives of people, who need encouragement to pursue their aspirations.

I would love the opportunity to perform and promote my music; I desire to enhance people's lives with my songs.
I would instill in people to allow one and other to be free to think, feel, and reason of their own choosing. People need to know to encourage one and other's participation in living life.

I want people to open their minds and begin to understand themselves with a greater clarity and begin to recognize other people have their own perspectives on life; we are not to impose our own sense of truth upon one and other.
I feel responsible to create the best possible performance and the elation of communicating my creations and reflections of living life.

Yes, attending and enjoying local performances.
The ability to remember music is for the listener: the ability to craft music the audience can identify and relate to their own lives is the focus of composition.
I have no right to disclose any wondrous experiences I have had. It is for the individual to decide what they find "awesome".
