Biography
My mother and grandparents insisted I take piano lessons, and after studying with a local teacher and then with Dr. Fugo at the University of South Carolina, I began teaching piano. Teaching was rewarding and it was a passion of mine, but writing music became my real desire.
Classical, sacred, and film scores have always been my favorite genres of music. I've had the privilege to write original scores for events, a hymn, and several other smaller projects.
I'm also the owner and sole proprietor of 18 Street Design, a web design and development firm in sunny South Carolina. I have a passion to create things, just like with my music, so design and development go hand in hand.
I have a wonderful and supportive wife and we have several dogs including the best breed in the world: daschund 🐾. In my free time I like to read, play the piano, and explore new technologies. I'm quite the Apple and Linux nerd too!
Web Design
I am the owner and sole proprietor of a solo web development firm in ☀️ South Carolina called 18 Street Design. I founded the company over twenty years ago and provide full-stack development services to businesses and organizations.
I focus on Wordpress development and implementation along with custom built solutions. I also enjoy the design process including graphic design and photography.

Musician & Composer
I've been playing piano and composing music for much of my life. I'm classically trained and taught piano for many years before focusing on my own compositions. My focus is on classical and sacred works and enjoy creating mixes of different genres. I also like to remix/arrange both classical and sacred works with an uptempo beat.
Favorite composers: Bach, Handel, Saint-Saëns, Beethoven
