PERSONAL STATEMENT:
Music is my oldest friend, the one I could always count on to soothe my spirit and deliver guidance, especially during the hard times.
As a kid, I remember listening intently to the lyrics of great singer-songwriters like Cat Stevens, Neil Young, Jim Croce and Harry Chapin, and to bands like The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Doors and The Beatles, feeling peace and calm.
As a young man, trying to find my way in the world, I gravitated toward personal-growth books, programs and seminars to help answer the question,"Why am I here?"
