About Me

I’m an avid enthusiast of music and art, and cherish quality time with loved ones. Venturing into nature is among my cherished hobbies. Embodying the true spirit of a Midwesterner, I was born and raised in Salina, Kansas. Having recently relocated to Tucson, AZ, I am on a journey to explore my potential.

One of my favorite hobbies is recording music on my guitar in my home studio. I’m especially drawn to classic rock and grunge, and I love playing songs that reflect those genres. One of my all-time favorite songs to play is “Blackbird” by The Beatles, and I also really enjoy “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right” by Bob Dylan. There’s something really satisfying about capturing the emotion and complexity of those songs while experimenting with my own sound.

Another one of my hobbies is cooking. I really enjoy experimenting with different meals and flavors, and one of the best parts is having others try my food. It’s a creative outlet that allows me to be hands-on and expressive, much like playing music. Some of my biggest inspirations in the kitchen are Gordon Ramsay and Guy Fieri—I admire their passion, energy, and the way they make cooking both fun and adventurous.

"Cooking is all about people. Food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. No matter what culture, everywhere around the world, people get together to eat."
