My passion for music is my art. Almost therapeutically, it allows me to synthesize ideas, emotions, and experiences in a melodic way.

I absolutely love composing and working with music! While no genre of music is ever off limits within my creative space, through the art of “play” I tend to allow my personal works develop on their own based on current moods or emotions rather than immediately focusing on song structure. Because my creative space is always ready to record, this allows me the ability to freely express my thoughts while also granting me the means to adjust things after I feel I have a solid composition recorded.
Where do you find inspiration?I actually find a great deal of my inspiration through film and video game music. I feel that there is a ton that can be learned just by listening to other composers works and the way they implemented certain instruments or sound design elements to enhance the overall story being shown on screen. In my recording space, I then allow some of those ideas and musical motifs to help aid in the way I approach certain compositions in hopes of delivering a lasting impact that resonates with others.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000 I would use a portion of the funds to further expand the tools available within my recording space, and allocate the rest to afford me the means of relocating to a music hotspot, such as Nashville Tennessee, that could potentially allow me to do more within my craft in music production and audio engineering, as well as the opportunity to further network with like minded individuals.
