Illustration & Graphic Design

I’ve been making art since I was a young boy and still find the act of making marks on paper to be a calming meditation and daily practice.

Performer & Music Director

I’ve been making music since I was wee. From childhood violin lessons to sitting in my room recording electric bass songs on my four track in high school. Since then, I’ve played in countless bands, written musicals and scored films. I’m available for recording sessions, live performance and original score commissions. I’m also offering affordable audio mixing services for bands and singer songwriters.

I currently perform as a drummer and bassist in Ithaca NY, playing afro-latin music from Cuba and Brazil, American folk fusion, funk and jazz.
