Who I Am

I am a Singer/Songwriter who has been writing and performing solo shows, open mics, and songwriter circles in Los Angeles and Chicago.  A multi-instrumentalist, I work primarily with acoustic guitar and piano.  My music is rooted in ‘70’s American singer/songwriter folk with a direct and to-the-point tone, built around honest, heartfelt vocals and simple, organic production. My focus is on writing and playing music, and continuing to expand my musical footprint.

I write honest, contemplative songs about relationships for people who seek real truths about themselves and others.  I want to be known for writing and performing songs that let people know they are not alone.

My music, past and present, is currently available on Soundcloud and Bandcamp.
