When I was eleven years old, my father brought a gun into our house and threatened to kill our family. On another night, as my stepmother screamed, “Kill him now!”, my father tried to break down the door to get to me. I escaped and slept outside in the cold because it was safer than staying inside.
That was only the beginning. I grew up with years of physical and emotional abuse. I was robbed at gunpoint. Twice, I saw people shot right in front of me. My first wife cheated on me. My second wife left me for another man. My work founding the Vilnius Jewish Public Library in Lithuania brought years of death threats. Today, I live with an incurable lung disease—despite never having smoked.
And yet, my story isn’t about being broken. It’s about refusing to stay that way.
I’ve traveled to 48 of the 50 U.S. states and visited 25 nations. I’ve lived in Hollywood, San Diego, Vilnius, and now a quiet farm town in Germany. Best of all, I have an amazing 11-year-old son who brings joy into my life every single day.
In April 2025, a simple, playful song idea unlocked something I never knew I had—an extreme form of creative synesthesia working side by side with ADHD hyperfocus. Since then, I’ve written around 250 songs, many in under five minutes, and developed multiple projects in TV, film, and stage. They range from What the Mack?, a family-friendly animated series, to Ron Biohazard, a gritty crime drama, and McGonagall: The Musical Mistake, a stage musical about history’s most notoriously bad poet.
I don’t write to overthink or chase trends. I let the words flow the way they demand to be written. Sometimes the scenes in my songs come from real memories. Sometimes they’re imagined. Often, they live somewhere in between.
Everything I’ve survived, everything I’ve seen, everything I’ve loved—it all pours into my music. I don’t write to make sense of it all. I write because it’s what keeps me breathing.
