I'm a metal guitarist from Wheeling, West Virginia. Music has been my passion for as long as I can remember. My first memory is hearing "Hell's Bells" by AC/DC. I began playing guitar at the age of 4, and when I found neoclassical metal as a teenager, I would practice until my fingers bled. Though I've picked up a few other instruments (and am a fairly proficient pianist), no instrument could ever come close to guitar playing. When I'm not working or sleeping, I'm playing guitar.
