About Me

I am a Kauai-based singer songwriter specializing in modern folk rock, congregational worship and Christian/mainstream crossover music in the tradition of bands like Switchfoot and Jars of Clay. Many songs I have written are currently being sung in churches on the west coast of the US and the east coast of Kauai. Meanwhile, my rock songs have found thier way onto rock radio in Southern California and Hawaii. My song "The Day" was recently featured in the film "Arc" directed by Steve Gelder. Subsequently, my music's exposure has continued to increase and recently at the Kauai Music Festival, gained the attention of A&R teams from Interscope, Atlantic & Island Records and Taxi.com. I hope to share my songswith as many people as possible during my short stint on Earth. Aloha.
