Piano + Audio Engineering

Piano

Music is a big part of my life. I started playing piano at the age of 5. Over the years, I've played many different styles, including classical, blues, rock, and Americana. I learned how to play piano on my family's 1894 Kimball upright grand, which, in addition to sounding amazing, is also a part of history. Currently, I am the keyboardist in my school's top band.

Audio Engineering

As a child, I was fascinated by the sounds instruments make. I loved turning knobs on my father's guitar amp and messing around in simple DAWs like Garage Band. I have since leveled up from my Garage Band days, and with the help of Pro Tools and some of my Dad's vintage recording gear, I have set up a home studio. In addition to recording my own songs, I have produced music for others.
