ABOUT

In 2007, I received several months of intensive training in ProTools and sequencers (Reason) via Michael Tarsia, formerly of SigmaSound Studios in Philadelphia, PA. I know how to record in a studio setting and compose complexly layered tracks. Michael Tarsia engineered Patti LaBelle's Grammy-winning "Burnin'" album. He is a personal friend of mine and I can call him pretty much any time if I have any technical questions.

I play a variety of instruments, my favorite is my electric guitar. I have not played in front of an audience since middle school. I would like to change that.

I moved out to Spokane two years ago with little more than the clothes on my back. Unfortunately, I had to sell everything I had. Earlier this year, after picking up the pieces and doing things like "finding my own place to live," I finally got my first instrument. And since then, I've been playing it more and more often. My equipment is cheap. But I'm looking to improve on that.

I'm first and foremost a writer, I've written a series of unpublished novels called "The Spokane Story." I also make videos for the novels, and for my YT channel. I usually set them to music.
