Hullo! I'm a guitarist/multi-instrumentalist originally from Detroit Michigan, now living in Tacoma, WA. I began playing trumpet in 4th grade and later took up the guitar, which has become my life long passion. Please listen to my tunes and feel free to post comments and let me know what you think. Your feeedback is always appreciated.

Thanks, and be excellent to each other.
