Bio:

I am 25 years old and born and raised on Staten Island.  I have been playing bass guitar for nearly 15 years, and guitar for nearly 10.  I work at the College of Staten Island's Admissions Office when I am not at Castellano's.  I love all kinds of music and collect records (You know those plastic discs you found in your parent's basement you thought were frisbees?).  I regularly gig at many bars on Staten Island playing Classic Rock with a guitarist/singer names Kayka, and I regularly play with Jimmy Mack every Wed. night at Liedy's as part of the house band.  

I have studied with Ed Brown, professor of music at Wagner College and CUNY, and Ernie Jackson, professor of music and music technology at Wagner college. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. at CUNY.
