Long story short, I used to be in a local rock band called Stabbing Westward, slumming it on the Chicago club circuit until we tripped on a record deal. We made a few records and played a bunch of shows, toured the world. Then one day, we decided to do different things so we called it quits.

I’ve always loved playing music for people, whether live or on the radio. Since the band called it a day, I’ve been at various radio stations and recently spent a few years in NYC doing A&R for a rather large management company.

Now I’m home in Chicago, at the station I grew up with, THE LOOP! It feels good to be home.
