Most recently I've been studying Classical Guitar as my major and focusing on a lot of J. S. Bach, however, I don't exclusively play classical music. I write my own instrumental pieces for guitar, songs for just guitar and voice and full band. I've always wanted to write for larger ensembles such as orchestras, and perhaps I'll be able to someday soon considering my major.
The first video below is from last winter where I entered into the Tiny Desk Contest held by NPR. The song is important to me because it's the first song that I've written blending my singer/songwriter style with my classical guitar concepts.
This next video is for the Tiny Desk Contest from the previous year, where a local filming company Knack Factory, along with a local blog Hot Trash offered me and a few other talented locals to have professional video shot for our contest entries.
The year before that I released my first professionally recorded EP, Lament. I made some physical copies that sold relatively well locally, and hosted a release party at local venue.

After releasing the album I applied to Breedlove to be one of their artists and they accepted me the following year. I don't play steel string guitars very much anymore, but if I did they would be Breedlove, and NOT just because I get a small discount now. They really are great!
