ABOUT

I’m a musician and audio engineer who’s been writing and performing since the late ’90s, working across 7- and 8-string guitars, bass, vocals, synths, and programming in a Pro Tools/UAD setup. My style leans heavy, atmospheric, and melodic, but I’m open to anything that feels genuine and creative.

Over the years I’ve learned from and worked with a few people who shaped my approach:
• Sam Pura, who’s produced bands like Basement, The Story So Far, Hundredth, etc.
• Mary Zimmer, known for her vocal work with Luna Mortis and White Empress, who helped refine my technique.
• Scott Middleton (ex-Cancer Bats), whose mentorship pushed my writing and tone choices forward.
• Dan Konopka from OK Go, who offered guidance on production and arrangement.
• I’m currently collaborating with Kyle Abbott in L.A., drummer for Vigil of War (with guitarist Kiki Wong, now part of Billy Corgan’s Smashing Pumpkins circle).

Live-wise, I’ve shared stages and bills with acts like Death From Above 1979, Strung Out, 18 Visions, A Static Lullaby, Bedouin Soundclash, IllScarlett, Keepin’ 6, and Alexisonfire — all at different points in my life, mostly before I shifted focus into production and songwriting.

Right now I’m mainly looking for collaborators — people who want to build songs, trade ideas, co-write, and see where the creativity goes. Rehearsals, shows, or a full project could come later, but my priority is the chemistry and the work itself: writing, shaping sounds, and making something that actually connects with people.

If you’re serious about your craft, open to mixing styles, and down to create without ego, I’m always up for a conversation.
