Music, Photography, Film, Fitness, and Art

I played a variety of instruments growing up like drums, bass, guitar, and vocals which I have been self-taught. My family has a musical background as my parents played at venues like the "Grand Ole Opry" along with my father running his own studio for the last 25+ years and in his 20's-30's toured bass for Marty Stuart. I have been producing, engineering and writing music (Genres: Metal, Indie, Bluegrass, Rock) since I was 14 and have had a passion for it at a very young age and still do everyday! 

I started freelancing photography doing portraits, landscape, street and nature photography for the last 2 years and have grown to love it and have been slowly working on running a small business out of that, as for art I've used photography as a tool to meet the artistic visuals for music along with making cover art for bands and my own as of last year.
