I am fortunate to work at something that I not only love, but is an integral part of my being.
I have played music since my earliest memories, was influenced by a musical family, made my professional life in music and couldn't be happier. I have been involved in all aspects of music - touring, live bands, concerts, recording sessions, TV shows - I have opened for major acts across the globe, headlined shows, been a hired-gun keyboardist, produced other artists, and released original works.
Now, I am enjoying the second 'half' of my career as a composer who has written for clients such as Disney, Apple, Cisco, Cost Plus, LSI, etc. I have also had the great opportunity to be a part of the creation of the music video game genre in the USA by working on music for the Karaoke Revolution video game series, Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero I, II and III, Guitar Hero 80's, Rockband, Samba De Amigo and much much more. I have composed film music for features (Graves End) and Documentaries (National Geographic's "A Seal's Life") as well as TV Series music for PBS, The Travel Channel, and Discovery. I have won four Emmys for scoring educational TV series. I am the proud father of Sophie Jane, who is 6 and just kills me with her smile, and Tessa Grace my beautiful articulate three year old. I am engaged to the love of my life, Lolly Wood, my best friend, penpal ( back when you had to actually have a pal and a pen. And paper.), and movie companion and crush of 35 years. She is unwavering in her love and support of me even through some tough and stressful times. I can't wait to see what our adventures will bring. I am a very lucky man to be sure.
