I am a automation engineer by trade, but as (side gig …& hobbies) writer, landscape photographer & composer / producer.

I currently live in North Carolina. I previously moved from San Diego a few months back.

I typically use keyboards for my weapon of choice but I bought my 1st MPC back in 2020 and I afraid that I am hooked on making beats and I happened to discover the Isla S2400 & knew that I had to experience it! The modern MPC’s are overall great machines but I wanted more of an analog sound so, I thought that the Isla S2400 was worth a try…

I have writing music since the early 90’s. My claim to fame is sadly… I have one published jazz song / record "All That I Ask, Let Me In… from 1995, recorded by saxophonist Ray Willis.

I have a few records that I have shot the photograph for during the 90’s as I was a CD album photographer for New York’s first (now defunct) Hip Hop Record Label called Select Records.

I also worked for Bad Boy Entertainment for 7 years within the culinary side of the business indirectly for Sean Puffy Combs.
