About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am out to empower people (myself included) to be more fully self-expressed in their lives through music.

ABOUT ME

I am a musician/songwriter/producer/sound engineer from Boulder, CO. I have recorded on 6 albums and am always looking to connect with other musicians and creatives. I live with my 90-year old grandfather, who is a retired University of Colorado professor and WWII vet. I play mandolin with local groups, including my roommates, Americana duo (and fellow CS-ers) Statue of Liberty, when they are not on tour.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm currently looking for what I'm looking for. Music has been the constant in my life for 15 years, and although I'm excited to take it on the road and stretch myself out through it, I'm open to really anything to be next in my life.
