I make music
I am a musician, producer, performer, and voice freak with a highly creative mind. Writing, recording, producing and releasing music in multiple genres; alt-pop, hip-hop, R&B, EDM, and ambient as well as compose music and soundscapes for film, TV, and installation work. Song writing, composition, arranging, keys, lyricism, midi programming, singing, recording & production… I love to make music, tell stories, and acquire new experience.
I teach and offer mentorship in music production ; using a DAW, making beats, recording, engineering. Perhaps you are brand new to production and want to just get started in a software, perhaps you need help completing that EP you’re sitting on, maybe you’re advancing your skills and navigating the infinaty loop that is music and music production.
I support artists across genres with the fulfilment of their musical projects from creative ideation through short and long-term mentorships through full release roll outs.

I teach & mentor
As soon as I am learning a skill I’m teaching it. That is how I have learned throughout my life and that continues today. I love empowering folks with new skills, improved skills, and deeper access to their creative voice.
These are custom-built offerings shaped around your specific goals.

Tech and toy set up & use
I teach voice; both for recording and performing as well as to meet your vocal goals whatever they may be. I have trained as a vocalist since I was a child in Jazz, opera, pop and rock style. I love exploring the voice in a supportive environment. The voice can be an emotional place and learning proper technique can be empowering and freeing and at times intimidating. You’re in good hands.
I offer sessions on songwriting, music theory education, project consulting, and grant-writing for folks who want to take their projects to another level.
Whatever your goals are for your sound I can help.
