A songwriter working in the Kansas City area.

I write from personal experience on the whole, and even when I’m telling a tale, its grounded in something that's happened to me... a sliver of time in the crazy ride that has been my life. Hopefully that comes through honestly .I write about everything, often about love or emotions surrounding relationships, those seem to be the songs that people respond to the most. I have had the pleasure of knowing a few amazing women in my life and hopefully when I've written a song about them they can hear and know that I genuinely loved them. I may not have always been the best man I could have been, but if I said it, I meant it...I mostly write by just picking up the guitar strumming a C chord and blurting out the first thing i think of, and then reflect on why I had that thought, then add some context to it... maybe pull away from the literal meaning so it is more free to evolve.
Sometimes an idea comes to me and I purposely push to get at a complete picture, that's the beauty of music though, it can become whatever you want it to be, its not burdened by boundaries and the next time you play it can be whatever you like, something completely new.

I have goals of writing albums and touring, i really can’t imagine a happier life then being able to play music and see the world.

Thanks for reading, I hope to meet you and sing for you in person
