I've learned some of the greatest life lessons from growing up in the skate and punk rock communities.

I still feel like we're the underdogs, but I feel like people respect us now.

True happiness for me is playing a concert in Blink-182, and then hanging out with my friends and my wife and son, and going out for Mexican food.

I really enjoy helping a band form their sounds and ideas from initial spark to completed album. Being a producer is different in that, at the end of the day, it is not my art. It's THEIR art, THEIR ideas, THEIR message.
