I’ve spent my life chasing something that can’t quite be explained—those fleeting, powerful moments when music connects people who may have never met, yet somehow feel something together. That’s what drives me. Every stage, every room, every audience is different, and I never take that for granted. Each performance is a unique privilege, a shared experience that only exists once.
My journey really began the day I picked up a secondhand guitar, learned a single chord (e minor of course), and wrote my first song. That moment changed everything. After years of playing within the lines, I finally stepped outside the box—creating my own music, using my voice to say something honest and unique. In doing so, I discovered something I had been searching for over two decades as a musician: my true voice.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts from Chapman University, and for over 20 years I’ve been performing, coaching, and teaching music. My path has taken me through studios across Southern California as a session musician, including as a recording artist and consultant with Devero Sound. I had the honor of recording on the live studio album Here And Now by Michael Olivieri, along with collaborating with a wide range of talented artists including Brian Ripps, Kris Doron, The Droppers, NepCali, Ethan Staus, Josh Bell, Jason Taylor, Scott Martin, Gabe Cummins, and Adrien Roberts-Gonzales.
I’ve performed at venues across the country—from intimate listening rooms to iconic stages—including House of Blues Anaheim, Harley Davidson OC, The Hollywood Bowl, Angels Stadium, State Social House in Los Angeles, TRiP in Santa Monica, Sunset Lounge Huntington Beach, Brix in Sunset Beach, The Blue Beet in Newport Beach, The Spotted Cat in New Orleans, and multiple venues in New York City such as The Paramount, The West End, Bar Nine, and Johnny Utah’s at Rockefeller Center. Each space has shaped me, reminding me that it’s not about the size of the stage, but the depth of the connection.
Along the way, I’ve been grateful to be featured as an artist in the original Spinning Series, a singer/songwriter for The Bar Society, and a multi-year performance artist at NAMM. I’ve also collaborated with brands like Breedlove Guitars and ZT Amplifiers, and built relationships with Tagima Guitars, Kyser Musical Products, and Peterson Tuners.
Beyond performance, I’m deeply passionate about the healing power of sound. I’ve facilitated live sound baths at spaces like HOME Yoga, The Phoenix, and The Yoga Barre, and have been featured in Dark Ambient Sound Bath experiences in Southern California and San Francisco. I also offer private sound healing sessions and vibrational massage, creating spaces where people can reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.
At the heart of everything I do is a simple intention: to encourage people to discover the song within their own soul. To embrace their voice—however it sounds—and find the courage to make a joyful noise. Music isn’t meant to be observed from a distance. It’s something we’re all meant to participate in.
So come listen. And when you feel it—join in.
