I’m fun loving new age hippie. I love grass, music, & martial arts. I’ve been playing/obsessed with the bass(electric & Upright) for 19 years. I’ve been playing electric bass for 19 years and Upright Double Bass for only about 2 years now.

- Occupation
- Bassist
- Favorite Genres
- Psychedelic Rock would be the best way to describe the music I end up always creating & mostly end up listening to also but with every single type of music and genre sprinkled in.
- Gigs and Ensembles
- Currently just working on getting better sight reading & on the Upright Double Bass so I can be completely prepared for my ultimate goal and dream, cruise ship gigs. I’m also the fill in bassist for the reggae band Bludgeon Muffin.
- Previously Owned Gear
- I’ve been through too many to name at this point
- G.A.S. List
- Actually I’ve been really lucky I’ve pretty much been able to acquire everything on my musical instrument bucket list in the 19 years I’ve been playing bass. Except for a real Hofner 500/1 4-string Violin Bass and a real Rickenbacker 4-string Bass
- Influences and Teachers
- Geoff Chambers from Discover Double Bass has taught me a lot recently. The reason why I play bass is because of Les Claypool and Paul McCartney, they are my two biggest influences.
- Hobbies and Interests
- Besides bass and TB, I really love jiujitsu & playing the Accordion
