Other Experiences

I have been a professional singer for many years, performing in recording studio’s television specials, the State and County Fair Circuit, and I have  toured with the Youth of America, but extensively with The Young Californian’s performing stateside at all the Military Bases in the West.  . I have performed with Bob Hope, George Gobel, the Nelson Riddle Orchestra, Pat Paulsen, Johnny Hartford and a few others. I have filmed a one hour musical television special with  the Young Californian’s, and have cut a single with them, as well as other recording and film work.   Most recently I did a short film for the  California State University Humboldt State, for their Oceanography Department, to be used in high schools for recruitment.

Some other theatrical performances include, “Stop the World I Want to Get Off”, “Kiss Me Kate”, “The Crucible”, and "Take Her She’s Mine"
