digital legit

hopping on this sucker to usher in a new year, in part. another trip around the sun for myself this month as well...though like wine and stinky cheese, things seem to be improving with age. nah vex so.

i would like to thank my sponsors, in no particular order: music, family and friends, herbalism, trees, mountains, lakes and rivers, sunlight and moonlight, bike rides and bus rides.

greetings, hive mind.

i am a musician, teacher, student, dreamer, and rambler residing the past few years in the northwest hideaway of portland, oregon. i have just recently submitted my graduate school application in the speech and hearing sciences, and look forward to seeing where that takes me. what ways will this discipline present to be combined with music, rhythm, and sound, with healing as the ultimate goal?

seeking a balance, in all things. i am a trumpet player, by nature and by trade, and have been at it for the better part of seventeen years. i'm suffering from performance and creative withdrawal currently, having taken the last tour off with the band i work with. school and work duties called, and i'm thankful that this crew of talented and kind folks respects and understands this. i am blessed to work with the escort service, the premier reggae backing band in the northwest. this past year has granted me the opportunity to take some incredible trips and share the stage with some amazing and inspiring artists working with these boys. i'm fiending to do more works with them, but in the mean time kindly link with us on facebook for info on upcoming tours and projects:
