After a distinguished 20-year career in the U.S. Air Force, Phil has transformed his world experience into a musical expression that transcends borders and connects deeply with listeners. Following his military service, Phil channeled his passion into teaching, founding a music school, and helping veterans cope through the incredible Guitars for Vets program.
