ABOUT

I was the lead singer for STIFLE until we officially disbanded in October 2011. We played covers and originals, in styles of Hard Rock, Metal, Acoustic, Classic Rock, and Alternative. I am a versatile, outgoing, creative, committed, and open minded individual, with a lot to offer. I stopped seeking for dead end jobs because I asked myself that question we all do at one time or another in our lives: "What do I wanna do with my life?" And I answered, "I wanna be a musician." (And an artist, but that comes in elsewhere...)

My new motto is this:
"Lack of success only fuels the determination to overcome failure."

EQUIPMENT

Well, being mostly just a vocalist/songwriter, and broke as hell most of the time at that, all I really have to my name is a professional mic with a stand. I do, however, also own, but am not that great at, a Johnson electric guitar with a Hohner classic model non-dist amp, and a Casio CTK-573 keyboard. I'm pretty basic with both, but willing to learn with proper guidance.
