My Piping Background

Without a doubt, piping is a passion! 

People often ask, "How did you get started with the pipes?".  My piping career started at the age of 12 in Michigan with my father's pipe band.  Growing up, we constantly had pipe music playing around the house and we commonly wore kilts to any one of number of occasions. I figured everyone did that... guess that's not the case! 

 Hugh the Bagpiper's awards and bagpipes. As a solo and band competitor, my journeys have taken me as far as Scotland to compete in the World Pipe Band Champions this past year and I am planning to return again soon. 

I have been fortunate to have won Champion Supreme in SUSPBA twice in recent years and hope to achieve that accomplishment again.

Below is a list of piping associations I have competed in as a soloist or band member:

  SUSPBA - the southern U.S. Bagpipers associations based in Florida     Southern United States Pipe Band Association

EUSPBA - Home for the Eastern U.S. bagpipers association  Eastern United States Pipe Band Association

 RSPBA - The heart of all bagpipe associations  The Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association
