Started writing at 15.  Parents bought me a drum set and my brother a guitar, and we started playing together in our basement. Eventually, we could play cover songs well, and began recruiting some of our friends to join the fun. A few years later we had a band.

My 1st recorded project was with my band Fertility. Fertility was part of a very special time in the Chicago music scene. In the beginning, we played countless local shows at churches, parking lots, auto body shops, farms, barns, and underground bowling alleys, just to name a few. We consistently passed out flyers to kids all over our town and littered our high school with paper flyers promoting our shows. Eventually, with a lot of practice and persistence, we shared the stage with then upcoming acts Fall Out Boy, The Plain White T's, Lucky Boys Confusion, and played at the coolest venues in Chicago. We were very lucky to have been part of a local scene that just does not exist anymore in the same fashion. It was a moment in time that we will never forget, and even recorded a few songs at the same studio that some of our idols recorded at. It was an unbelievable experience to say the least.

Today, I DJ, and produce, and sing. I like to fuse a lot of styles together. Many of the songs have their own vibe and tell different stories.

I love working together with other artists. You might notice some of my latest single releases are collaborative efforts. Making music with other artists is essential to your own growth as a musician.
