THE TEAM
From the alarm clock, to grocery stores, to the dentist’s chair, music enhances both our cognitive and emotional states; it's an evolutionary force drawing from nature and human nature, uniting us through common experience.
I know how music moves people to places they weren’t expecting. I know the power of great music has always been necessary to our survival. InTANDEM artists are already doing this – creating uniquely original, moving works. I grew up with all music genres, fall stored in unforgettable memories. One such memory was a concert on the coast of Turkey with Ray Charles under a harvest moon.
“Music is powerful. As people listen to it, they can be affected. They respond.” – Ray Charles

For as long as I've been playing music, I was also drawn to recording and producing it, which is my career focus. Starting from capturing live recordings on an MP3 player at jam sessions or shows, I moved through a variety of different portable recording devices and consoles, and eventually to the modern approach using an interface and DAW. It is important to capture something special at the source rather than rely on crafting something "in the mix" later.
Attention to detail, love of capturing a moment, and focus on proper arrangement; combined with a keen interest in crafting emotional mixes, is what I bring to the table. My hope is to bring a musicians-first approach to working in the industry with my main focus on serving the song.
