ABOUT

I am a 32 year old musician from Chicago looking for serious projects and gig opportunities.

I am well studied in punk, pop punk, rock, country, blues and pop. I have been hired to play for theaters, churches, as well as performed with bands throughout Chicagoland and surrounding areas (House of Blues, Metro, SXSW, etc.). I am experienced in sight reading, improvising, recording and songwriting.

I have an Arts Management degree from Columbia College so I always try to bring an entrepreneurial spirit to projects I am a part of.
