It is my goal to create and to help others create, in as many ways as I can. I strive to use my specialties to help others discover and nurture theirs. I’m driven by a desire to collaborate with others, to build something greater than the sum of its parts.
I am a classically trained pianist, who at some point also mastered the guitar, drums, bass, several woodwinds, and have been known occasionally to sing. I can generally make music come out of things that have music in them.
While learning to play various instruments, I wrote songs, as one tends to do, and found myself wanting to record. The next logical step in my love affair with music led me to a B.A. in Electronic Music from University of California, Santa Cruz, and fluency in Pro Tools, Logic, Reaper and Live.
After graduating from UCSC in 2008, I entered the then-barren wasteland that was “The Job Market”. With no prospects in sight, I created my own, freelancing as a Web and Graphic designer, and Photographer. I am fluent in HTML5, CSS3, JS, Java, and CMS/Wordpress/Blog Deployments.
What’s the point of creating art if not to share it with the world? My social media savvy allows me to build strong contacts and collaborate with other inspiring content creators. I also use my expertise in my current position as Audience Development Strategist for a YouTube Music Network.
