A typical day in my life includes…

when I’m not on the road for shows,writing songs and picking guitar…after I make breakfast, pack lunches and take the kids to school.

I was born…

in Phoenix, AZ as a 5th generation native. My family settled Prescott in 1863 before AZ was even a state.

My favorite thing about Arizona…

living in the desert with the ability to drive two hours into the mountains.

I’m listening to…

Eric Church, Gary Allan, Johnny Cash, Jason Isbell.

My family…

is everything. I couldn’t do this without my beautiful, supportive wife Missy (who was my high school sweetheart by the way) and my daughter Abby and son Nolan.

If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…

the Man in Black himself, Johnny Cash.

One thing I cannot live without…

Tito’s and beer.

When I was younger, I wanted to be…

a professional golfer.

I’m inspired by…

truth and loyalty.

The one person who motivates me is…

my wife.

If I could change anything in the world, it would be…

divisiveness.  I wish we could remember that we are all part of one race, the human race, and we all face the same human struggles and joys.

The perfect day would be…

one more day with my dad.

My first job was…

Antelope Hills Golf Course as a range picker.

My favorite escape…

the woods of Happy Jack, AZ.

My life…

is a story of resiliency, from rags to riches to rags, and never giving up on my dreams and passions.

I’m currently working on…

promoting my music career and my debut album – true to my roots, its called Arizona and you can find on any streaming service.

Always…

be positive,  hold the door and say please and thank you.

Never…

forget where you came from.

Favorite Quote…

“Show me a good loser and I will show you a loser.”

Biggest Dream…

to be blessed enough to have an impact on people though my music, and a sweet label deal.

My Pet Peeve(s)…

people who enter stores at the exit and leave shopping carts in parking stalls.
