Music has always been at the core. I had a bit of muscal training early on, but it was the Bay Area rave scene that really shaped me - the nights that went 'til sunrise, the sounds that didn’t fit anywhere else, the feeling of being fully lost in it.

I’ve been producing and DJing for over two decades, across a wide range of genres: ambient, deep house, breaks, techno, drum & bass — whatever tells the story. I came up as part of a house music collective, playing countless underground events, always chasing the feeling that only a perfectly timed track can deliver.

There was a long break in the 2010s, but since returning I’ve been reconnecting with the craft in a deeper way. Some recent tracks have gotten real love, and people have been resonating with the sets again — the flow, the selection, the sense of journey.

I’m not here to follow trends. I’m here to move people.
