Born in 1958 in Warren Ohio, I was a curious kid all the way.

My Father was a music teacher and music has always been a love. That led me to playing music professionally and eventually building a recording studio in Lansing, Michigan.

Early on… I learned that musicians had no money and so I turned to businesses and provided audio production services.

After discovering that message-on-hold was growing in popularity, I developed a strategy to provide that service. Premier Companies continues to produce HOLD PLUS programs for thousands of clients world-wide.

In 1999 I moved my family from Lansing to Nashville, and now I live in Brentwood, TN with my wife Anne and my 3 incredible children.

In my years of wondering this planet… I’ve played uninterested student… inspired musician… booking agent… accomplished performer… entertainer… song writer… video producer… dental lab technician… pioneer telemarketer… dental product manufacturer… operations manager… business owner… product design/development… recording studio designer/owner… record producer… recording engineer… audio product development… magazine publisher… business coach… marketing consultant… sales manager/coach… sales scientist… graphic designer… marketing expert… franchise developer/owner… talent manager… and probably a few more.

My gifts and passion are inspiring leadership… effective marketing… business management… sales scientist… business coach… life systems architect… serial entrepreneur… visionary… encouraging communicator… strategic thinker… a do’er… and an adventurer…

Hobbies include collecting things… cars- guitars- pens- coins- shoes- coats- friends… music… woodworking… Boy Scouts… tech gadgets… travel… travel… travel

I’m proud to be a father… husband… and a Christ follower…
