Bio
I grew up listening to the Beatles. I remember playing a few of their songs by ear on a bamboo flute when I was young. I never have any formal music lessons besides the High School choral group. I taught myself to play guitar in the mid 70's and discovered my passion. I learned enough songs by James Taylor, CSNY, Jim Croce and Neil Young (to name a few) to get me some gigs around the city to help support my education. After I graduated, I concentrated on my career and raised a family. But we move around quite a bit, from Florida, New York, Chicago, then finally, to California. This is where the music bug hit me again, when I volunteered to play guitar for the children's choir at my church in Fresno. I found my second calling once again, playing and writing Christian music. When we moved to San Diego and worked in the trauma ICU, I get to know the patients and family members so well because they stay in the hospital for a longer period of time. As stressful as it is, I found a lot of gratification in making a difference in these people's
lives. Sometimes, just talking to these people is all they need, but for me, the inspirations have just begun.
