I have my parents to thank for teaching me to sing and rhyme. As an only child on a farm in Massachusetts, I was taught to read and write early, and music was used as a teaching tool, as well as a means of entertainment and recreation. Later, traveling on long trips up and down the East Coast, my parents would sing with me, to pass the miles, and we would harmonize together.

Being fortunate enough to have a great job in a family business, I am now free to pursue music for the joy of performing and composing. However, realistically, a professional musician must also conduct their career as a business, if only to protect the other musicians in their group as well as the people who hire us. Expresso, whether in Jazz, Blues, or Variety form, represents me, as a professional musician and as a person. I will always conduct my musical profession with the same level of integrity as I conduct my family business.

A wise person once told me, "There are performers, and there are entertainers--there's a big difference!". My goal is to be an entertainer--to engage the audience, make them happy, nostalgic, relaxed or excited, depending on the venue. I want my audience to know that it is both a privilege and a joy to share my music with them. Whether we entertain at your private gathering, for a concert program, or in a cozy bistro, Expresso will satisfy, stimulate and warm your heart.

Music has always represented good times and a means of release to me. Writing poetry was also a natural road for me to travel, as both my parents enjoyed writing, and studying English in College was an easy choice. I received my B.A. from the University of Florida Department of English, and continued to write. Years later, after attending Trinity College in Hartford CT, and receiving half of the required credits toward a Master’s Degree, I came to the realization that spending time and funds on scholastic achievement no longer held any appeal for me. Instead, I made the decision to invest my time and dwindling funds in recording my first, all original C.D., Touchstone. I have never regretted that decision, and several years later I began work on Raven’s Wing, the second of my original C.D.s. which was completed in 1999. I also made the decision, when Touchstone was released, to dedicate my original music to specific animal rescue and shelter operations, particularly those designated “Non-Kill” Shelters, where animals are either adopted out to approved families, or given a home for the rest of their natural lives, in comfort and love. Life for me has a wonderful sense of balance and harmony, as I make my living helping animals by selling Anico Veterinary Products—the line of Nutritional Supplements, Healing Products, and Natural Grooming and Digestive aids started by my Dad over 45 years ago. To this day, he and I are partners in the business and he continues to be my best teacher and guide. I now have “adopted” Journey’s End Animal Sanctuary, located in Glenwood, FL, as the main recipient of any help I am able to give, through my music.
