One moment at a time.

About Me

I have been playing guitar for more than 14 years and has 8 years of
performance experience. During my high school years I performed in
school musicals and at private dinner functions.
I was also a member of the band Sourdrop who played all over the
Gold Coast and Brisbane.
Sourdrop supported the well known bands Powderfinger, Grinspoon and
Custard at the Tweed Valley Banana Festival and won Battle of the Bands
two years running.
Throughout university, I was part of a 13 piece Latin Jazz Band called
Hot Mambo, which played various Corporate Cocktail functions and a series
of gigs at The Southbank Parklands
titled Salsa on Sundays.
In addition to working on collaborative projects with musicians from Japan,
Korea and Europe, I have become adept with various recording platforms
such as Protools, Cubase and Nuendo. I enjoys recording my own
materials and has taught himself audio engineering techniques to enhance
his sound. If you would like to get in contact with me please email me at
