My experiences with music first began at the tender age of eight when I began to study the violin. A year later I ended up switching over to the trumpet(I always wanted to be Wyntom Marsalis) . This was when I realized and felt that music was more than just playing notes. I loved what it did to me , especially when I improvised. Thats when music would really have an impact on me. Even though I continued to play trumpet , I found myself picking up the guitar at age 14 which turned out to be a great challenge but was still rewarding . After playing in many bands in high school I decided to get more serious about music and study composition in college which led to my graduating with a B.A. in that field of study . Currently, I spend as much time as possible teaching music and I am starting to write multimedia music for websites and and small business radio ads.
