Hello
there.

Catch me listening to Motley Crue in my car or binge watching The Big Bang Theory on a Sunday night . Born and raised in a small town outside of Peoria, Illinois, I have always had a strong passion for music. As far back as four years old, I was drawn to the jazz radio station and would zone out into the melodic harmonies of the big band sound in my car seat. When I was six, I watched Disney’s Fantasia in 1st grade music class and that’s when I knew music was where I needed to be. In 7th grade, I joined the junior high concert band, with a little old rusty Conn cornet by my side. By the time high school rolled in, I was heavily involved in the extracurriculars in music, including wind ensemble, marching band, and of course, jazz. My parents were not musically inclined people by any means, leaving me out to be the geeky black sheep of my family. One thing I can credit them for is raising me on good ol’ rock & roll. I can recall head banging to Pat Benatar’s Heartbreaker in the backseat of my mom’s car as a kid. I picked up the camera my junior year of high school and ever since have loved the art of capturing the moment. In 2020, I moved to West-Central Florida to pursue my career and take on my dreams. With my love for photography and music at hand, I am here to share my insights and experiences in my music world with you. So take a moment to explore, engage and connect with the beauty of music and photography in my little corner of the web.
