I am from Saginaw, Michigan and I attended Arthur Hill High School (back when there was an AHHS). I have been a part of FMB since 2023 on both trombone and baritone. I have been playing trombone for over 40 years, and I taught myself how to play baritone a little over a year ago. It has been an amazing experience being part of such a fun group of musicians! 

I have been a member of the Classic Legacy Band of Saginaw for 27 years and a member of the Mid Michigan Brass Band for 3 years. While I love being a part of these great groups, nothing compares to the interaction with the audience and the fun that we have in FMB. I really enjoy seeing the smiles and hearing the laughter from the people in the audience. My real job is working for the State of Michigan as a Department Technician/Scheduler for Unemployment Appeals. My FUN job is making music with FMB. Fun Fact? I can ride a unicycle but no, not while I am playing trombone or baritone.
