Well, I enrolled and ended up going to the Berklee College of Music 10 years later then I thought I was going to go. I began playing in a ton of musical situations and working a lot. School was great for me at the time and exposed me to many musical scenarios. It got me out of my little box I was in and opened up my mind. I was working in great groups at the time both commercial and original. Bands like the ED Peters Orchestra, Myanna (Smooth Jazz Artist), Brian Walkley, Sal DiFusco/Jon Damian Duo, Surrender Dorothy (Original Rock group), Stardust, the Radicals (Original Pop/Rock group with shows in Major cities in US and Paris), Relentless, Wired (Jeff Beck Tribute band) Heart and Fire (Original Latin Jazz group with Russian Tour), Scream Her (Original Heavy Rock group).

  I did some wonderful shows with some great musicians including "Speech" (from the Grammy Award winning group Arrested Development) at the Orpheum Theater in Boston, Susan Tedeski (Grammy nominated singer/songwriter), Terri-Lynn Carrington (in a concert at the Wang Center in Boston for the 1993 Boston Music Awards) Layla Hathaway, Peter Erskine (Drummer for Weather Report in a concert at the Berklee Performance Center), Gary Burton (Also at the BPC), Paquito D'Riviera and many others. I graduated Berklee College of Music in 1993 with a 4-year Diploma in Jazz Composition. It was such a great experience with all that I learned and all the performances I was able to be a part of including Singer Showcases, Commencement Concerts, Faculty and Student Recitals.

  After graduating, I excepted a position in a World Wide Ministry in the ARTS/MEDIA Division. We organized concerts, Open Mike Jam Sessions and the music for international conferences all over the World. I traveled to countries including France, Hungary , Albania and the Philippines performing original music for groups of thousands. We had great performances in major US venues including, the Boston Garden, the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles, and venues in Atlanta and New York.
