My songwriting journey began when I was 13, not having any knowledge of theory or how to play an instrument. Somehow, I managed to throw together a loose resemblance of what we might call a song, using only free notation software with instrument sounds that were probably recorded with a potato. It was awful, yet despite all that, I was so drawn to the craft of songwriting that I had to keep doing it.
My goal with this platform is to take you along with me on my songwriting journey and develop together as artists. This isn’t an easy career that we’ve chosen, but my hope is to help you cut down on the failures and the process of trial and error I had to go through so you don’t have to work for many years to finally reach a professional level in this craft.
