BIOGRAPHY

I grew up in Minnesota (Minneapolis), the "Land of 10,000 Lakes." I was commissioned a 2Lt upon graduation from South Dakota State University in 1975 and spent the next 24 years serving in the United States Air Force. I've always had a passion for lyrics and made the jump to full time writing after working for 2 weeks as an extra in a movie with Tim Allen, called "Joe Somebody". My screenwriting then evolved into songwriting. Writing songs is my profession. I currently reside in San Antonio, TX.
