I am a singer/songwriter whose songs reflect strong family values and experiences from real life. My songs tell a story that most people can relate to and are rooted in my reflections on life and living. I grew up in a midwest farming family with 12 brothers and sisters, so I know just a little about family.

My songs, for the most part, are easy listening and country in nature, although I'm a fan of music from the 50's to today - classic country, rock 'n roll, soft rock, ballads, and more. And bands that reflected the times of my life like CCR, Chicago, the Eagles, Beatles, Firefall, Alabama, just to name a few.

My heros in music are many, from Don Williams to George Jones, Hank Williams, Sr. to Kris Kristofferson, and from Johnny Cash to Alan Jackson.

While the artist brings a song to life, it's the lyric and the story that motivates me to write and sing. A love song, a tribute, a powerful experience...all of these are the foundation for a moving story in a song.
