OK, Here We Go!!!
Hello all!!!
I'm coming to you from West Hartford, CT. I graduated from Central Connecticut State University, Communications B.A., with a minor in journalism. I just turned thirty, which by the way, is the new twenty!....nice intro aside... Where do I begin...?
After losing a very close friend of mine in July, I suddenly started to realize that I had not been pursuing my dreams to their fullest potential.
Maybe it was fear of rejection, maybe I thought it was too late...for whatever the reason, I thought I couldn't do what had been my wildest dream in life.
Then I realized, what do I have to lose?
Then I asked, what might I gain?
And then... I took action.
I have decided to chronicle my steps along the way as an emerging performing songwriter. The name of the blog "Stop Signs and Red Lights" is actually the name of the first single that I have already recorded! What an exciting day that was! I wrote the lyrics, worked with producer Bobbi Tammaro from FUNKEE BOY MUSIC, and got into the recording booth!
I am currently getting ready to go back to the studio and record the next single, 2 Day Bender!!
Along the way, during this whole process, I have learned a lot about myself and what I am capable of. The one thing that I can say to anyone with a dream is follow it!! And never doubt yourself!!!
So, stay tuned! Save this web address, check in every now and then, leave a comment...This is gonna be a fun ride!!!

Yo alex, mad ups on getting this music thing going. I wish to do the same thing at some point, but of course first I have to learn how to play guitar ;)!!!
and I was just thinking the other day that 20 is the 30, as I turned 27 on Sunday.
