Mijn passie voor muziek begon toen ik twaalf jaar oud was en de legendarische sound van Alice Cooper ontdekte. Vanaf dat moment was er geen weg terug. In de loop der jaren is mijn muzikale reis uitgegroeid tot een brede liefde voor hardrock, prog rock, prog metal, zware metal en authentieke blues.

Naast het vullen van mijn platenkast trek ik er graag op uit op de fiets om te ontspannen en mijn hoofd leeg te maken.
