I first became interested in healing while stationed with the Pacific Fleet Band, in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

The band had somewhat of a nine to five type of schedule, so I had many evenings and weekends off. I began to become enamored with the vast metaphysical activities in and around Honolulu.

It all made sense to me, and I felt like a switch had been turned on inside of me. I had no doubt that I was a healer. I left the Navy to attend Berklee College of Music as a film scoring major. During a winter break I was invited to a Reiki event in a beautiful cabin near Grand Father Mountain, N.C. Reiki blended well with the other healing modalities that I already had in my tool kit. In a few years I became a Reiki Master.

Upon graduating with honors I left to pursue what I thought was my calling, composing music for film and television. I simply followed the long line of film scoring majors to Los Angeles where I quickly found work as an assistant to an award winning film composer. While going out on one of many coffee runs, I met a woman who was a Reiki Master. When I came back with the coffee, I told my employer about my meeting. He commented that it was the first time he ever saw me smile.

Like many people, LA chewed me up and spit me out. I sort of wandered around in a daze for many years. I knew I had something to offer, yet, finding it was like chasing a feather.

I found many opportunities to heal others, yet avoided healing myself. At what seemed to be my darkest hour, I began to compose again. This was something that I had not done for almost five years. The music helped to heal me, and I knew that by combining my skills as a composer and Reiki Master was the best way I could serve the Universe.
