about me |  |
|||||||
| I received my formal musical education at Boston’s Berklee College of Music. After the Berklee experience, the true hands-on learning came from working with dynamic, "listening" players... both live and in the recording studio. | |||||||||
 |

|
Played/recorded with a multitude of Hawaii-based artists: |

| I have worked with international recording artists Lea Salonga, Pauline Wilson (formerly of Seawind), Michael Paulo, Martin Nievera and Hubert Laws. | |||||||||
 |
I also double as an Information Systems professional, with an extensive programming and Systems Analysis background. Since relocating to the Big Island, I've completed four CISCO CCNA Network Associate courses, a CISCO Web Design course and a CISCO wireless class. My next task is preparing for CCNA certification exam #640-801. I've always believed in life-long learning - it's "food for the soul". I really enjoy the contrast of two vastly different professions: being a musician; as well as working in Information Technology. |
