Hello and thanks for checking out my page. I was born and raised in Northern Kentucky near Cincinnati. In high school I began playing music which is still bringing me joy to this day. I paused my academic career to pursue a career in politics. Feeling unfulfilled, I changed career paths and moved out west and worked in Yellowstone National Park for a few summers. Eventually, I met my fiancé Tia while living in Colorado and we've created a life of music and travel that brings us both so much happiness. When Covid-19 started in March of 2020 it sidelined live music around the globe. I decided it was a good time to go back to school and finish my degree. I will graduate in May 2022 with an Integrative Studies degree that has allowed me to study many of my interests. I'm grateful for the 'pause' that has allowed me to pursue a degree I've always wanted. I am hoping to use my education and experience to continue to follow my dreams and work toward a sustainable & happy future for me, my wife, and everyone.
