About Me

I am a 22 year old student at Michigan State Universtiy. I live for music. It is the air I breathe. My songs are my diary, my heart on my sleeve. I write about pain and promise, hurt and hope, life and love. My music is a work in progress. My writing and my voice have come along way, but have a long way to go.
These songs are rough demos recorded in my bedroom. I can't wait to record a studio EP so that you can hear the songs the way that I hear them in my head. Thanks for giving it a listen, it means the world to me. Any questions you have feel free to ask.
