         I was born on Febuary24th 1970 in a small town in Iowa. At an early age I was
        exposed to rock bands like Kiss, Alice Cooper and Led Zepplin. As I grew older, music
        had taken a place in my life that would affect me forever. In my teens, I didn't want
        to do anything else but play music so I picked up my first bass guitar (being that
        Gene Simmons was my biggest hero) and started learning from records. I was learning
        anything I could get my hands on whether it was a Duran Duran record or an old Led
        Zepplin album, I just wanted to play a whole song all the way through. When I was out
        of high school, I hooked up with a couple of guys from the area and we started a band
        which took up all of time for the next 10 years. During this period I have been in
        several bands such as an Ozzy Osbourne tribute band (Mr. Crowley), several cover bands,
        blues acts and of course all original touring  
        bands(Pull). Right now, I'm currently not with any band but I continue to write
        and record songs.   |
