As a new up and coming bass player, I know that my health mean a lot to me. I plays 4, 5, and 6 string basses. With bass role models such as: James Jamerson, Jaco Pastorious,Sting, Timoty Schmidt, Roger Filiberto, Les Claypool, Tony Johnson, Marcus Miller, Me'Shell Ndegeocello, Laura Love, John McVie and Zennon to name a few of the great bass player for me. After spending over 28 years in corporation trying to climb the coporate ladder, and being told that even with a Master's degree I didn't meet the qualifications to fit most upper jobs and over qualified to meet lower job. I turned to selling health insurance. Playing the bass, for me has been a rebirthing. It has allowed me to grow and appreciate myself more during a time when others have not been there to give me support. I have been writing, reading and playing the bass with great energy.
