About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Help other people to achieve their dreams and goals in life. I want to be an enabler of good things!

ABOUT ME

I am fortunate enough to be able to call myself a recording engineer. I have been recording some of my favourite bands for the last 5 years and it's my goal to open a large recording studio in the future. I also play and write music on occasion. (I play the guitar and drums).

PHILOSOPHY

We have complete control over our thoughts and emotions. If you feel bad it is within your power to change it and feel good. I believe that people that have figured this out for themselves should go one step further and help other people to be happy.

There is not much I won't try, and not much that I don't like. I don't like onions, but that's about it. Let's say... japanese, italian, mexican, and... burgers, just so you have no sense of what I like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven't yet had the means to go nuts and explore all corners of the globe, but I will someday soon. I have spent a lot of time pouring over books and computer screens and building my career, and I'm on the verge of becoming a vagabond.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are a musician or you have a business idea that you want help to get off the ground, I am a recording engineer / online business guru and I'd love to help. I can teach you how to record your music, make it sound better, or get funding for your business idea.
