I was born…

My favorite thing about Arizona…
I’m happy here. I didn’t grow up around mountains or this type of climate. It’s absolutely beautiful. I traveled quite often in my life and this is the first place I truly feel a sense of home again!
I’m listening to…
my 6 year old daughter “Daddy we need to go to the grocery store and get some ‘Corn Starch’ for my science project”. I enjoy all types of music. I’m pretty big on R&B/soul (Babyface, Brian McKnight, Mint Condition, R. Kelly, Levert). I enjoy older country music (Conway Twitty, Alabama, Shania, Oak Ridge Boys), 80’s music (Def Leppard, Hall & Oates, Poison, Motley Crue). I even listen to Nat King Cole, Michael Buble, KEM, and Frank Sinatra.
My family…
isn’t even close to the “Cosby’s”. We’re more like The Kardashians without the money, an Olympic medal, compass inspired baby, a brother, an overbearing amount of sisters, etc. But still plenty of BS.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
with both of my daughters in the same place. It hasn’t happened yet.
One thing I cannot live without…
my family.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a baseball player and a singer. Am I still younger? I still want to be a singer!
I’m inspired by…
people who have nothing and still find a way to be happy. The “worth” is in the world you create and how you choose to live your day.
The one person who motivates me is…
it’s not just one person. It’s the countless individuals and families who struggle on a daily basis to survive. Things can always be worse. I’m thankful for what I have.
I’m motivated by…
the happiness around me and the well being of my family. My life isn’t just about me anymore. I do for them!
The perfect day would be…
AWESOME!
My first job was…
an Armored Truck hit in. Oh Wait…I mean, I worked at a car wash!
My favorite escape…
The creative process when it comes to writing. Creating something from nothing. Listening to the playback over and over and smiling at the finished product!
My life…
is a rollercoaster, I’m a bit of a rolling stone. I always feel I can do better!
I’m currently working on…
securing a publishing contract as a songwriter. I have a catalog of original music with lyrical content that reaches all genre of music from country, R&B and soul to hip hop, adult contemporary and commercial.
Always…
keep your back to the wall so you can see what’s coming at you.
Never…
act like you are more than you are. Be real and be respected for the person you have become.
Favorite Quote…
“Just do you”.
Biggest Dream…
I’m not really a dreamer. I don’t sleep much as it is. My mind is always clicking. I just try to do the best I can with what I have to obtain my goals.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
negative people. I dislike people who whine all the time and talk about how bad they have it. Someone, somewhere will always have it worse than you.
