An advertising I did for CBS "US OPEN Man's Final" in 2010.

Performing my original composition "58/17" live and giving an interview on Channel 11 "Morning News" in 2009.

I was granted the opportunity to do a live segment on NBC in 2008. This video features performance of my song "Spartan Glory" and a short interview.

The TV crew from NBC came down to the subway to film me for their program "Today Show" in 2008.

In 2008, I was invited to perform live on "Fearless Music" program. I chose to play my original composition "Spartan Glory."
