I'm a musician and audio engineer in Portland, Oregon. On this page you'll find some samples of my past musical creations. All music written, performed, and engineered by me unless otherwise noted. I hope you enjoy my music!

I make weird music that does not need to meet anyone’s expectations. That’s a beautiful and lucky thing. No name-dropping here. Just enjoying a free space to share musical bits.

ism is more than music
