Since I was a toddler changing my own cassettes, I have been fascinated with any piece of technology I could get my hands on. A guitar soon made its way into my hands, and I went on to study composition and music production through high school. Bouncing around various roles film and television roles throughout college, and the beginning of my professional career, I settled into audio as my home.

My favorite teams to be a part of are upstart projects that survive solely on the creativity, drive, and relentless dedication of all collaborators involved. These experiences have developed into a general life philosophy for me- that every setback, challenge, and disappointment is just an opportunity to think outside the box, work a little bit harder, and take that much more pride in what I produce.

 

Collab Light into Earth

110 musicians from 30 countries

In early quarantine, I founded and executive-produced Collab Light Into Earth, a series progressive-rock covers by an international roster of musicians. What began as a small project between some fans of the band Porcupine Tree, each project has grown in scope and ambition, culminating in a full cover of the band’s 2002 album In Absentia. In addition to curating an individual “band” for each song, I managed a talented team of producers, engineers, and video editors to bring this video to light (as well as contributing guitars, synths, arranging, and mixing on a few songs).
