Bio

As a freelance musician, my background in piano, percussion, and music technology has led to a wide variety of professional music opportunities, including community theater performances, the Grand Rapids Symphony, and pianist with Fair Haven Ministries. They also include thousands of jobs for  cocktail piano events, wedding services, rock, blues, and show bands as well as fun time piano bar and dueling piano shows. I also freelance as a studio musician, creating music for commercial, motion picture, instructional, and entertainment industries.  In addition, I have a Bachelor's degree in piano performance, been adjunct faculty at GVSU, and have travelled as far as Japan to study piano culture and manufacturing. I've been in music retail since 1984 and currently serve as sales manager for Keyboard World of Grand Rapids. 


I am also a name dropper and include this small list of entertainers I have either shared a stage with of warmed up for: Bo Diddley, Huey Lewis and the News, Henry Mancini, The Kinsey Report, Sugar Blue, Albert Collins, and Steppenwolf. Local theater shows incude Hark Up!, Jesus Christ Superstar, Little Shop Of Horrors, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, Sunday In the Park With George, and Nine.
