The Magic of Music and My Songwriting Journey
Isn’t music incredible? The right song can instantly lift your spirits, bring back memories, or put a smile on your face. That’s exactly what happened to me—years ago, in a big way.
There were always songs that made me happy, but none more than those written by one special songwriter. I’d hear I Think I Love You by David Cassidy and The Partridge Family (who truly inspired me), I’m Gonna Make You Mine by Lou Christie, or Blessed Is The Rain by Johnny Maestro and The Brooklyn Bridge. Those songs struck a chord deep inside me, and I just had to know who wrote them.
The answer? Tony Romeo. To me, the greatest songwriter of all time. While not a household name, he was behind so many incredible songs of the '60s and '70s. Having played piano since the age of five, I had always performed other people’s music. But after discovering Tony Romeo’s work, I was inspired to try songwriting myself.

Melodies started coming to me out of nowhere. I’d hear them in my head, play them on the piano, and soon, lyrics and rhymes would follow. That’s when I knew—I had found my passion.
From that moment on, songwriting became an essential part of my life. The thrill of creating something new, the challenge of getting my songs heard, and the joy of seeing them placed with artists or recognized in competitions—it’s been an incredible journey. It hasn’t always been easy, but every publishing contract, every award, and every time I’ve heard an artist bring my music to life has made it all worth it.
Helping me turn my songs into fully realized productions is the legendary music producer Steve Skinner. Steve has worked with icons like Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross, Bette Midler, and Jewel, and his impressive resume includes work on the Broadway production of Rent. Collaborating with Steve has been an amazing experience—his ability to bring a song to life is nothing short of magic.
I invite you to explore my music, hear my story, and maybe even find a song that puts a smile on your face—just like Tony Romeo’s songs did for me.
