I was born right here in good old Bangor, ME, but lived in the southern part of the state for over 20 years. Previously I worked for our sister stations in Portland, WBLM and WCYY, before my wife and I moved back up a few years ago to be closer to our families, and to try and have a bit slower pace to our lives. I'm still waiting for the slow-down!! When I'm not working, you'll usually find me out to my camp fishing, tending to the smoker, or just lazily riding around the lake in my kayak. In the colder months, I love to snow shoe out there as well. There's always an adventure to be had out at camp. I'm also a professional drummer, and have spent many years playing countless gigs, making records, and touring all over the country. These days, I really enjoy doing drum tracks from my home studio for friends and clients. Music is my passion and reason for getting out of bed every day. Whether I'm playing it, listening to it, or talking about it, it's all just as important to me as the air I breathe. I'm unbelievably excited to rock with guys, and look forward to sharing all my crazy stories and thoughts. And hearing yours as well!!
