I was born in Denver Colorado and I have lived in Colorado most all my life. I spent the first 20 years growing up near Morrison Colorado and then moved to the Western Slope of Colorado and have lived here for the last 50 years. I owned and operated two store locations in both Delta and Montrose Colorado for 25 years called The Music Cellar. After we closed the stores in 2002, I spent a couple years in Australia building houseboats in both Melbourne and Brisbane Australia.
After returning to Grand Junction Colorado I began working for FujiFilm as a technician for photo labs which I did for 5 years. I currently work for Snob Productions as a concert technician for the last 10 years and as a Peer Specialist for MindSprings Mental Health for the last 4 years too. I am an active musician / songwriter and also a Grandpa to two beautiful Grand Children ages eight and two.
