Though I wasn’t born in Austin, I got here as soon as I could! Originally came to the area to attend the Art Institute of Austin with dreams of one day landing a career that could see my love for technology & science alongside my lifelong passion of music. However, as it so often does, life had other plans and I found myself pursuing a more “practical” career path after being misled to the conclusion that this was not a career that a living could be made from.
The COVID pandemic was a turning point in my life, as it made me realize how precious time is. I decided to reignite my passion for audio . It felt like fate when I learned that Austin Community College had recently opened state-of-the-art audio facilities at its Highland campus, just two miles from where I lived. I seized the opportunity, fully immersing myself in my studies, and I’m now on the verge of graduating with dual Associate’s degrees in Audio Engineering and Digital Composition. Along the way, I’ve earned several certifications and gained invaluable industry experience.
My journey may have had some twists and turns, but I am now more driven than ever to make my mark in the world of audio and music production. Currently, I’m wrapping up the last few classes for my degrees while continuing to hone my craft. When I’m not learning or working on projects, you can find me enjoying live shows from my favorite artists, experimenting with new sounds in Ableton, or spending quality time with my wife and our three beloved fur children, Hero, Hera, and LB.
