Summary

I'm a passionate musician who has a strong interest in being involved in the music industry; whether it be my own music, working with other artists, or even cultivating a spot for musicians to gather and play. I have interests in most all forms and genres of music and would love to take part in it all. What sets me apart is my desire to fully understand the musicians I work with both on a music level and a mental level, which is where my diverse music experience comes into play along with my patient demeanor. My one true goal as a well rounded musician is to be able to make a living and having as much fun doing what I love: music.
