About Me

I'm a violinist/singer/songwriter in San Diego. Right now I'm working in a project with 2 other great songwriter/guitarists and a very creative and solid rhythm section. I'm lucky to be working with such talented, devoted and good-natured people.
I started playing violin at the age of 10 and picked up guitar around 16. After high school, I moved from my home in South Dakota, to attend college in Minneapolis. While at the University of Minnesota, I continued my study of the violin, but after one semester, I decided I wanted to explore music outside of school. So I did, I left the UofM and headed for Southern California. After 3 and 1/2 years of playing music around LA/OC in a band called After Miles, I moved further south, to pursue new music. Now in San Diego, I'm in a band we call Riddle the Roar, I do studio and live work all around the western United States, and I teach some very brilliant young violinists.
