My other life was that of a new car dealer for many years with the itch to write songs full time.

I often write with Nashville legend Bucky Jones, along with Ed Leavitt from my area and many other talented songwriters.

I’ve been fortunate to have some independent cuts, some of which were recorded in Nashville and am seeking that elusive major label deal.

I am a member of the Nashville Songwriters Association, BMI and SongU.com.

I have been happily married to my best friend, Linda for many years. We have a wonderful son and daughter-in-law and became grandparents for the first time this summer!
