Lifelong Rochester area native and lifelong #BillsMafia. I'm a marketing distribution specialist by day and an overzealous live music fan by night. My passion is discovering unknown artists who grab the attention of eyes and ears and beg me to stay with a unique approach. Striving to be bold and become my authentic self, I am a creative force of nature. Unemployed lead singer of Dirty D and the Done Dirt Cheap Band.

First show: New Kids On The Block
Favorite band: Phish
Favorite regional band: moe.
Best-kept secret band: the Niche
Religion: Josh Allen
