Artist History
I grew up in the SMALL city of Port Charlotte, FL. I have also lived in Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale, and Lakeland (Mulberry actually). I started playing music in the Fourth grade when my parents bought me a clarinet to play. I was directed by Mr. Les Kraus in my Middle School years, and in my final High school year, I had Mr. Dale Preston. I was Drum Major of my Marching Band, and Student Conductor for the Concert Band. I have been in Solo and Ensemble Festivals 19 times since 8th grade, and have received 17 Superior Ratings and 2 Excellent Ratings by the FBA (Florida Bandmaster's Association). I was in All-State Band twice (8th grade and 12th Grade). I have decided I want to be a big influence to young students not to give up on their dreams because I am achieving mine at last. I have waited approximately 9 years for this, so it takes a while to reach your goal. Thanks to all my family and friends who have supported me. |
