Edit history

Music has always been in my soul and I began my early exploration of music playing brass instruments. From the age of 9, I played swing and jazz, playing the majority of my music with jazz and big bands. This led to an opportunity to start an a capella group, playing small gigs at the local jazz clubs. I soon got itchy feet in terms of my music and wanted to challenge myself. I picked up the guitar at age 20 and started learning simple chords, which over time, ultimately led to songwriting. The songwriting process is a cathartic experience for me and one in which I often have no control over. I give myself over to the music and allow the process to take control. Music is as natural to me as breathing...and something that inspires me daily.
