I was born in Tucson, AZ and never left.  My love for music comes from my musical family.  Growing up, playing music was pretty much a requirement.  My Jefito (dad) could really sing and play almost any instrument he picked up.  And my Jefita (mom) can also sing and play a mean tambourine.  I started playing at 8 years old when one of my bothers got me a drum set. From there, I tried playing trumpet cause my Jefito wanted a trumpet player in the family, but like my Jefito and my second brother, I ended up playing sax. 

  
Playing all through school and then out locally, I got to play all kinds of different types of music in different bands. Eventually I added keyboards and singing to my gig bag. I also got a few opportunities to go into the studio on some projects.  I realized I enjoyed mixing different musical styles under the umbrella of Latin music.  I believed music would end up being my career in whatever genre.  Not seeing where my music was going, I stopped playing out.  My day job started becoming a career and music just became a hobby I sometimes worked on at home. 

Messing around with my Roland workstation and Garageband I got excited about playing again. The technology sparked the creative process...pretty cool.

Which has led me to here. Creating whatever inspiration leads me to.
