Floridian. Veteran. Musician.
About
I’m a songwriter and musician based in Merritt Island whose music draws from the places and experiences that have shaped me. I spent 23 years in the U.S. Marine Corps, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, followed by years living overseas in Indonesia, Thailand, and Japan. Those experiences, along with my love of Florida, the outdoors, and the ocean, have naturally found their way into the songs I write.
My sound pulls from blues, reggae, grunge, and classic rock. I’m drawn to raw riffs, honest lyrics, and songs that actually mean something. Much of what I write comes from real experiences—war, family, places I’ve lived, faith, and the experiences that tend to stick with you over time.
I enjoy playing covers across several genres and usually put my own spin on the songs I like.
Live at the Mangrove, my first original album, brings together songs I wrote at different points throughout my years on active duty, recorded live with a baritone acoustic guitar over two days at my home studio. It represents where my music is today and, more importantly, the things I hope to leave behind for my children.

Can I hire you for an event?
What instruments do you play and what do you do in the studio?
I play guitar, bass, piano/keys, drums, and sing lead vocals.
In the studio, I track and arrange my own material, building songs from a simple idea into a finished recording. I focus on getting strong, honest performances at the source and keeping the production clean and intentional. I don’t use auto-tune or heavy vocal correction — I prefer to capture the performance as it is.
I know a couple hundred songs across blues, country, reggae, southern rock, and acoustic rock — along with my own originals. My sets usually mix crowd favorites with deeper cuts, depending on the vibe.
I respond well to live requests and am always reading the room. If there are specific songs you’d like included, I’m happy to work them in when possible. With enough notice, I can usually learn a song or two for your event as well.
