More about me…
I was born in Baton Rouge, LA and studied Violin at Louisiana State University. I’ve been married 14 years to my lovely wife, Amy, who is a doula, and have 3 little boys that keep me very busy. I’m an NBA basketball fan. My favorite Beatle is George Harrison. I listen to all types of music but classical music has a special place in my heart–I have a tattoo of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring on my left arm:
