Where It Started

I grew up on my dad’s hard‑rock records and my mom’s ’80s and ’90s pop playlists, so blending genres has always felt natural to me. That mix shaped the way I play today — eclectic, flexible, and always focused on serving the song. 

My Musical Training

I earned my degree in Popular Music Performance from USC’s Thornton School of Music, where I performed and recorded with world‑class musicians including Patrice Rushen, Ndugu Chancler, Paul Jackson Jr., Andy Abad, and others. Over the years, I’ve built experience across pop, rock, R&B, blues, jazz, country, and folk — versatility I bring into every session. 

My Approach

 I rely on ear‑driven instincts, technical precision, and creativity. Whether you need a soaring lead line, intricate jazz chords, ambient textures, rock with attitude, or a faithful imitation of a specific player, I approach every part with intention and professionalism.

Supporting Artists

I’m available for session work, remote recording, co‑writing, and live performances across Los Angeles and beyond. Whether you need lead guitar, rhythm support, vocal harmonies, bass, or creative partnership, I show up prepared, easygoing, and ready to support your vision.

On Stage & In Session

From intimate venues to major stages like the Hollywood Bowl, I’m comfortable stepping into any musical environment and helping bring your project to life.
