Welcome

I am launching this web site and blog around the publication of my first book, “HAPPY GIFTING: A Pathway to Connection With Hundreds of Gift Ideas.” And as I continue to put out content, you will notice several themes emerging.

The first theme is “creative human connection.” I desire to vibe positive and channel love through the medium of art. It started with performing on stage and making people dance. I then hit the music biz and most importantly produced the “Instant Love: Songs Between Women” music series where women sang to each other on covers of classic love songs. And now I’ve written a book on gift giving because, well, gifts are like a good song. They’re amazing the first time and with every replay in your mind.

Another theme is independent arts and entrepreneurship. After a decade of working in indie music I have shifted to self publishing and I have a LOT to talk about. The self publishing world is amazing and full of opportunity. I made sure to sell my Self Publishing Blueprint the day my site went live. I love to teach and help other people hustle. I used to lecture at Berklee College of Music all the time.

And the final and perhaps best theme of all is my dog Ocho. She changed my life. And I suspect she’s the influence for my next book (hint, hint.)

Welcome to my world and I hope to connect with you.
