As a live performer, I am the bassist and one of the vocalists for the The Jim Mesi Band. Some other notable artists that I have performed with are Ry Cooder, Buddy Guy, Bo Diddley, Mark Lindsey (Paul Revere and the Raiders), Jeff Healey, Jimmy Thackery, Geoff Achison's Souldigger Band, Collin James, Robbie Laws, the late Paul DeLay, Terry Evans, and D.K. Stewart.In addition to performing with the Jim Mesi band, I also perform with the local area worship teams, work as a session bassist in local area studios, and fill in for a number of local bands.

As a writer, I write and record songs for Songs of Love. I am also a writer for Columbia River Records. I am currently in the middle of production on my first solo c.d. which is expected to be released by the end of summer 2007.

I teach bass at Ape Over Music and my home, both located in Vancouver, Washington. My lessons cover all aspects of bass playing from music theory, basses role in music, technique, equipment, and just about anything else bass related.

When I'm not working, I spend my time with my son Timothy, my girlfriend Paula, her children Blaine, Jordan, and Randi, and my parents Tim and Linda. In the summer I enjoy riding my Honda Spirit motorcycle with Paula, and fishing and camping with my family. I love poker, especially texas holdem. I am an insatiable reader and some of my favorite authors include Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Michael Crichton.
