I'm a 22-year-old singer/songwriter/producer from Lehi, Utah, (that one town from footloose). Music has been my lifelong passion, cultivated by my family's deep love for dance and the performing arts. Growing up surrounded by the eclectic sounds of The Killers, Coldplay, Maroon 5, and Keane, I developed an appreciation for diverse genres and styles.
My musical journey began with singing, nurtured by formal training starting at age twelve and enriched by my involvement in the school choir and theatrical arts. At thirteen, I discovered the art of songwriting, realizing its ability to weave narratives through melodies.
At seventeen, I achieved a significant milestone: independently writing, recording, producing, and mastering my debut album. This immersive experience ignited a fervor for music production, leading me to create three full-length albums since. Each album reflects my evolving creativity and influences.
In addition to my music endeavors, I've gained over 5 years of experience in videography and photography. Collaborating with my brother (arkangel films), I've filmed and produced numerous professional music videos, further expanding my skill set and artistic vision.
Relocating to Arizona and later Denver, Colorado, expanded my musical horizons. From headlining gigs to live television appearances, and even earning a spot as a finalist in a competition hosted by Alice Cooper, each opportunity has propelled me further on my artistic journey. Whether performing in small coffee shops or on mini national tours in my van, every stage has been a lesson in self-discovery and growth, reinforcing my belief in the transformative power of music.

I've traversed many roles in life—perceived as an outlaw, hero, villain and more. Yet, amidst the chaos, one constant remains: my unwavering dedication to music and the arts. From exploring taboo subjects to delving into the complexities of love, my compositions encapsulate journeys through realms both earthly and ethereal.
Formally trained in sound engineering at Full Sail University, I uncovered a sobering truth: the music industry is entrenched in corruption and control, stifling the emergence of new voices. Determined to shift this paradigm, I advocate for artist empowerment, striving to restore autonomy and equitable compensation.
With over 30 years of music production and songwriting experience, I possess a profound ability to connect with diverse sources of inspiration. I delve into the essence of artists' souls, extracting their authentic expression to create resonant works of art.
