How did you hear about/find us?
A flyer in Starbucks near my Mom’s place.

Band since Junior High through College. Then little amateur fun things on and off for a few years.
What is your favorite “Band Song” to play?
Honestly, I love it all: marching, concert, jazz band!
What do you do when you are not playing music? (work/hobbies/for fun???)
Ride my motorcycle, amuse my mother.
What type of animal/breed of dog/cat/bird/fish/other etc…. best reflects your personality and why?
Owl, so my wife says. Apparently, I am observant. #shrugsshoulders -- She also said badger. Yeah, that’s probably closer. #getouttamyhouse!
What is your superpower?
Trying to keep up with Jillian Michaels as she kicks my butt 6 out of 7 days a week.
Tell us something fun! You know, like “That one time at band camp…” Or elsewhere. (funny anecdote/story/amazing coincidence/hidden talent/celebrity encounter, etc…)
I shook Carrie Fisher’s hand after her performance of “Wishful Drinking” in Washington, DC. She wore her Sunglasses at night! I got a t-shirt of her quote that says: “Instant gratification takes too long.” Miss her much!
