When six years of age, on the hot streets of Arizona, my mother’s tapes of Enya and Yanni were instilled in my mind as my first musical influences. I began to teach myself the piano and guitar at the age of eleven. I immediately showed an interest in writing music when I scrawled out my first composition with a runny pen on homemade staff paper. At that time I was really into Rachmaninoff.

When I was fifteen I began writing a series of instrumental piano solos and I also started my first band. During that time I began to develop my interest in recording, and aside from the band I began to record a series of digital instrumental music.

At the age of nineteen I went to Monterrey Mexico for two years to serve an LDS mission. Upon returning I began to compose orchestral, wind ensemble, and choral pieces, which have been performed at Dixie State College. I am now attending Berklee College of Music and continue to write.
