Music

Hey everyone, thank you for checking out my website!

​

It's always been a dream of mine to play music for a living so I've finally decided to start making it one of the main focuses in my life.



I'm 26 years old, have been very happily married for almost 3 years and we now have our first kid due in the middle of this September!



I've been playing music for basic

ally my whole life. My mom started teaching me (along with my brother and sister) piano when I was 4. I began playing the bass when I was 10 years old and started participating in our church worship team when I was 11. When I was 15 I started to take drum lessons. Nothing has ever come so naturally and easy to me. I always feel so at home and most comfortable when I'm behind a drum kit. It wasn't till I was in high school I started to dabble around on the guitar, both electric and acoustic (my dad is a phenomenal guitar player), which soon lead me to start leading worship for our youth group at church my sophomore year. I continue to lead worship in various churches to this day.

I began recording and producing music right after I graduated from high school. I interned for a recording studio called OneWayStudios in Benicia, CA for a couple years. That is where I learned how to take the music I write and turn it into a full production. From miking drums, to guitar cabs. Even what kind of guitars to use for different parts of songs. It's only because of my internship that I am now not only able to mix and master my own songs.



None of this would be possible if it wasn't for you! Along with my beautiful wife Rachelle, who is so understanding of me always making so much noise in our little apartment. My parents have always encouraged me to pursue music and have always helped out in any way they can. My brother (graduated from Musicians Institute in Hollywood with the "Best Student Award") for sharing his musical knowledge with me. My mom and sister for taking hours out of their days to help film for me! Last but not least, all if my friends who have helped me write/record music over the years.



Thanks friends, you make this a joy and privilege for me!
