My Website

I have played in many orchestras
throughout the Midwest and South as
section and/or principal Violist. I also had
the honor to studywith world renowned
Violist Jerzy Kosmala at Louisiana State
University and have shared the stage with
the likes of Itzak Perlman, Pinkus
Zukerman, Mark O'Connor, and Natalie
McMaster, to name a few.

I was fortunate enough to make my
Carnegie Hall debut in 1986 with the Baton
Rouge Symphony and then to returned in
1987 as a member of the Louisiana State
Chamber Ensemble. A total dream comes
true.

In 1997, I discovered Celtic music, and for
the first time in my career, picked up a
fiddle and became a founding member of
the Celtic band, Knot Fibb'n. Then, in 2001, I
joined the AmeriCeltic Rock Band,
Homeland. Together with the 2 bands I
recorded 6 CDs which you can find by
visiting their individual websites.

A few years ago, I was fortunate to be hired
on as Luthier for The Loft Violin Shop, in
Columbus, Ohio. My job is restoration of
Violins and Violas. So, I am very lucky
because, now, I have a fiddle under my face
24 hours a day!

Know, being part of Roger's Group, I really
plan to set the world on "Fire"
