    Hi there, I started playing bass in 9th grade. While riding the school bus home a kid whom I didn't know said, "Hi my name is Jerry. I have a rock and roll band. I play the drums. We have a bass guitar but no one to play it. Would you be interested in giving it a try?" At that time a had a few friends but not much going on. I said, "Sure, I'll give it a try." "Cool!" He said. We rehearse at my house. Since those days I've sung on THE TONIGHT SHOW with JAY LENO, played bass with Barry Goudreau and Sib Hashian of the rock band BOSTON, Mike Stone of the rock band QUEENSRYCHE, country artist BRAD PAISLEY, Maurice Starr songwriter and producer of NKOTB, Trez Gregory background singer for BROOKS and DUNN, Dan Kenny music director for Britney Spears... Most recently I released a children’s album. I wrote the lyrics and music to all of the songs. Twenty- eight 4th and 5th graders from Plymouth, MA are singing on it. The album also features 6 Berklee College of Music seniors, 3 from South Korea and 3 from Japan. You can listen to it at PlymouthRock.org. I’ve appeared on A&E’s hit reality show Wahlburgers starring actors Mark and Donny Wahlberg. I play bass guitar for former American Idol contestant (who made it to Hollywood) Teddy Mathews, and the real Johnny Drama from HBO’s hit series Entourage who is Mark and Donny Wahlberg’s resl life “cuzin”. I live in Naples FL walking distance to the beach and love life!

    Experience

    Music Teacher

    Jan, 1994 - Aug, 1994

    Woodward School for Girls Quincy MA

    This was my first job teaching at a private school. I was asked by the headmaster to come in and fill a vacancy. I happily took the job. The students were from six grade through 12th grade. I thought the music theory and was the conductor of the student chorus.At the end of the year the headmaster retired and a new headmaster came in with new teachers.

    Arts Specialist

    Sep, 1999 - Aug, 2000

    Bay Farm Montessori Academy Duxbury MA

    I enjoyed my job at Bay Farm Academy. I taught toddlers through sixth grade. The school’s focus was on musicals and plays which was an amazing experience for me. The music was connected to the curriculum in a way that supported learning. It was fascinating to watch the students learn the songs and learn their lines as well as take direction for movement on stage. I worked very closely with the drama teacher.
