Interests
I am a father and a husband. There is nothing more important to me than making sure I am able to provide for those that depend me.
Music is what I'm REALLY good at. Aside from working at Applebee's, I've gigged professionally for the last 7 years as a "hired gun" bass guitar player. Being a "mercenaty of music" and playing with as many bands as I have, has taught me organization skills. The last thing you want to do is double-book yourself. It makes you look bad and tarnishes your reputation.
