About Me

I am serious about learning everything I can about my instrument; not only playing and theory, but construction and maintenance as well. I am interested in technological advancements, especially if they can help broaden my creativity and expression through music. Such things include: mastering the various music programs that I have access to, using and implementing floor pedals and boards for effects, and the setup of a guitar and perpetuation of its life.

After graduation this May, I intend to play music to support myself and do what it takes to become a prominent entity in the music industry. I believe the key to this success is being a multi-faceted musician, specializing in many fields, such as technology, playing, writing, and promotion.
