Born and raised in Grants Pass Oregon, I took a risk and found myself planted on the opposite side of America. From West to East, to say the least. From the mountains of Oregon, to the shores of Virginia I have seen it all.

I am a singer, songwriter, guitar player, arranger, orchestrator and Artist. I have been playing the guitar and writing songs for over a decade and it is something that I would consider to be one of my great loves. Music is a beautiful thing that reminds me who I am, it helps me to connect to my spirit and to others as well.

I particularly try to push the boundaries of songwriting and guitar playing. Trying a novel approach to figure out what hasn’t been done. One of the ways I’m doing this now is by telling my story in a profound way. I take inspiration in songwriting from Artists like Sting, Tom Petty, James Taylor, and Johnny Cash. When it comes to guitar players I love Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Mark Knopfler, Steve Vai, John Fruciante and many others. It’s fun to try different combinations to see what I can come up with.
