Musician, Producer, Audio Engineer, Songwriter and Composer based in Chicago IL. I've played guitar in a variety of bands, from hard rock to electronica. I also play bass and some percussion instruments (bongo, djembe), as well as program/engineer drums, synths and anything else in a DAW. I have a degree in Sound Recording Technology from DePaul University in Chicago. I love working on music at all steps of the process, from writing and arranging to production and engineering to mixing a final product. Film scoring is something I really enjoy as well. I am a web developer during the day but I aim for that to change!

Session guitar: $150 / song

I have been playing guitar for 20 years. I played in a youth Jazz band for 4 years from ages 15-19 and went on to spend a few of years at DePaul University studying Jazz Guitar with Bob Palmieri. I dropped out to pursue more contemporary music opportunities, but I ended up picking up a chronic injury that sidelined me for 5 years. I moved past that situation by learning the production/engineering side of music, and now I am able to bring that perspective to my guitar playing.

I can provide rhythm and lead electric guitar parts of the highest quality for nearly any genre (I have no experience with Metal). I have the ability to record very high quality tracks, using professional-quality gear and audio software.

Mixing: $100 / song

I have a degree in Sound Recording Technology from DePaul University and have a fully capable home studio. I mix all of the music that I release.
