Music
Music has always been my number one passion. From a very young age it has always been very important to me. I majored in music in college, and I consider it my primary profession. This page is dedicated to my first and favorite artistic medium.
The bagpipes are one of my musical passions. I have been a piper for many years. I made my living as a piper for hire and a bagpipe teacher for a couple of years. I have also traveled all over the country and overseas to play competitively against other pipers. I was the Pipe Major of a Pipe and Drum corps for a couple of years. We traveled to Scotland at one point to compete in the world championships. Here is a photo of myself and the band in Scotland at the North Berwick games, the weekend before the world championships. We won first place that day. What a feeling.

Here is a recording of the pipe and drum corps when I was at the helm. Here we are practicing our competition medley – Seven Pipers Competion Medley
I have also performed in a number of bands. Original projects, cover bands, and a variety of others. Most recently, I sang with a band at various casinos on the Las Vegas strip. Here is the a snapshot of me on the stage at the Excalibur Casino.
More to come as I find the time!
