Writing music and putting thoughts into lyrical melodies is an incredible thing that I have always loved. Being able to capture the inspiration of a moment and translate that into something that your friends can relate to is what keeps me doing this. I have been writing and performing since I was a thirteen year old kid. My mom got me interested in songwriting at a young age, and my uncle finally encouraged me to get my first guitar -and I start plucking away. My faith in Jesus is what has sustained me in my endless quest to write vocal melodies and line it up to a dynamic progression behind a guitar. There is no right or wrong way of making music, at least not that I've found yet. My heart is to write about the things that matter the most in my life.

I am STOKED to announce the arrival of the long awaited full length album titled "The Color Of Harvest!" If you are interested in listening to some of the new music or you want to purchase a full length album, then i encourage you to do so! I am excited to bring this music to you the way it was meant to be heard, with an acoustic guitar in my hand. These songs are all reflections of my journey while traveling, surfing, and just plain living. People I meet often ask me what my music is like... well, Imagine yourself sitting in front of a campfire at the beach watching six to eight foot waves crashing in front of you -it's like that except your super chill 'cause you've been surfing all day and it's just time to relax.

Every song on this album carries its own life since it was written over the course of 7 years, I hope you enjoy!
