I hope you'll take a minute to learn a little
about who I am. I'm 40 years old and originally from
Memphis,
Tennessee. In
the early 90's I spent many hours working in area studios learning the art of
recording. I began in a friend's small 8 track reel-to-reel project studio,
interned at a state of the art studio on world famous Beale Street, and
eventually worked as a writer, engineer, and producer with a partner at our own
studio. Through word of mouth, I attracted several customers; vocalists and
lyricists who came to me needing lyrics or music. In addition to supporting
local artists, we also wrote music to pitch to national artists and record
labels. We worked in that studio for about four years. During this time I had
also begun working as a DJ at a small local radio station, where, in addition to
my on air responsibilities, I learned to produce commercials and write copy.
Fast forward to 2000. No longer working in
music due to the constraints of "adulthood", I had completed college and begun
working for a large corporation. In late 2000, we learned the Memphis
office was slated to be closed within a year, but there was a position opening
in Northwest Arkansas
supporting one of our large retail accounts. I was offered that position, and in
July of 2001 my wife and I moved to Bentonville. The region is beautiful and the
people are wonderful.
After spending the first year getting settled
and deciding we weren't going anywhere, I decided it was time to get back into
voice work, writing, and music. I thank God for the path that led me to this
place. Thanks for reading.
