Overview: I make my living as computer systems administrator, but I've been interested in music since an early age. I vaguely recall being placed on the hood of our old Ford station wagon in a restaurant parking lot somewhere and being encouraged to sing. I was probably four years old, and there wasn’t much of an audience, but someone told me to sing—so I did. As a teenager, I learned to play the guitar and began to write songs. In 1995, at their annual American Eagle Awards, the Country Music Associations of America named me Songwriter of the Year for my penning of “Heart Donor.” Although I’m only a part-time musician, I have done a number of public performances at churches, weddings and local venues. One that stands out for me was singing “Break This Chain”—a song that my sister Danette penned to highlight the issue of domestic violence—at a Tony Dungy “Uncommon Leadership” event at the Plainfield Correctional Facility near Indianapolis on Nov. 17, 2010.
