- About Me:
- Despite the fact that I'm extremely involved with music in the NY/NJ area today, I am not a musician. My connection to the music scene was purely accidental. When I took an early retirement from the corporate world, I wasn't sure what to do & I became restless. I was accustomed to being extremely busy. I found the answer through reconnecting to my life-long love of music. That which started as an attempt to help a friend promote his performances, evolved into a newsletter, and eventually morphed into a Music Community.
I am a former Operations Manager, Engineer, and Adjunct Professor and today I do consulting work, volunteer, and run the Web Music Community. This is my way of thanking my musician friends for the many hours of enjoyment they have given me.
