About Me

I am a bassist/guitarist that has been involved in playing music to some capacity for over 14 years now. I enjoy writing, recording, producing, playing-out, etc.

I am always on the lookout for new and exciting projects to collaborate. The songs on this site are just rough-draft ideas I did for a Songwriting class at Foothill College (great class).
