Born and raised in Tallahassee, FL. I’ve spent most of my working life working in and around the music industry. I began work at the Leon County Civic Center as a stage hand in 1989 and was hooked on live music from then on.

In 1992 I began working with Jeff Hanson a local promoter and the owner of Club 506. During this stent in the bar business Jeff and I created Metropolis, Big Daddy’s, Fat & Skinny’s and Floyd's Music Store.

Leaving the bar industry behind In 1996 I joined Jeff at his newly formed artist management firm (JHMP) to manage a little-known college rock band we had grown to love by the name of Creed, with JHMP as their managers Creed went on to capture seven #1 hits and sell over 35 million records worldwide. In 2004 as Creed called it quits I exited JHMP and the music business all together leaving behind Bombtrax and the newly formed Silent Majority Group label.

In 2005 I partnered with a FSU alumni Terry Robinson to launch Robinson Outdoors a chain of outdoor power equipment stores based in Central FL.

In 2011 I founded Blue Collar Commerce to bring affordable turn key e-commerce solutions to outdoor power equipment retailers and provide online marketing support to the outdoor power equipment industry.

My hobbies include auto racing of all types, electronics of all types, home automation and building or racing anything..
