If you're reading this, you need a hobby. But, if you must know…here it goes.

Raised in Bloomsburg. Joined the Marine Corp in 1968 and ended up doing a tour in Vietnam buzzing around the friendly skies in a helicopter.

Came back to Bloomsburg after being honorably discharged from the USMC. Drove a truck for a while, ran a carpet cleaning business a few years, sold sporting goods on the road a few years…then got into the insurance business in 1978.

In 1982 I started my own insurance agency, which grew into a wholesale surplus lines brokerage/surety bond underwriting company. I was president of this for fourteen years and sold my interest in 1996.

Then came my completely crazy years. I had previously played in bands in the 70's and always was writing songs, particularly on a comedy vein. So, I began playing music in a couple of duo's then as a solo comedy artist. I played tons of venues mostly in PA and NY. From 2001 till 2006 I recorded 7 albums of my own songs. My album "Spread It On Thick" recorded at Saturation Acres with a great back up band got lots of airplay and is available all over the internet…I-Tunes, Amazon, Rhapsody…many many more. I hit comedy charts in Australia…ok, I'll brag a little. I topped the comedy charts there for a time...

Ok, so the traveling, the nighttime gigs, the carrying heavy equipment up stairs had to end. So here I am at WHLM. Give me a call here, we can have lunch, discuss radio and maybe I'll talk you into running some radio commercials. Ya never know.
