Born on June 2nd, 1997 in a Dallas hospital, I've spent most of my life growing up in the nearby suburbs of McKinney, TX, a small city that's about a half hour drive north of Dallas proper. Since I was first enrolled in guitar lessons around the time that I was eight years old, I've dreamed of becoming a successful musician and composer. My songwriting habits went hand and hand with my practice sessions, and I continued to hone my craft over the years both through further practice and music theory instruction. I would generally describe my musical style as neo-tonal and neo-romantic, borrowing heavily from composers of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries such as Schubert and Debussy. Most of my pieces are very passionate, emotional and programmatic as they attempt to capture a particular scene or tell a certain story, all traits that I believe make my music perfect for use in some of the other media that I listed earlier (television, movies, videogames, etc.). Thus far, my pieces have been heavily focused on tuneful, songlike melodies with mostly major/minor key and modal harmonies (although I've occasionally also utilized some jazz and atonal harmonies), but I'm perfectly trained in and willing to experiment with more avant-garde techniques if necessary, such as 12-tone, serialism, polytonality, atonality, etc.
