I was born in Brooklyn, New York and at the age of 3 moved to and grew up in the Pocono Mountains Pennsylvania. I started my professional music career while attending Churchman’s Business College in Easton, PA. Within 2 years I was working full-time as a musical entertainer. I did everything from being a ski race announcer to singing the Star Spangled Banner at
The Pocono 500 NASCAR race. I also hosted dozens of major Pocono music events, festivals and concerts,
all while playing hay rides, kid’s parties, weddings and lots and lots of bars & clubs.

Of the many different paths and formats taken through the years, the “one man show” has been the most successful.
