About Me
I began poking at my parents' piano at age eight and haven't stopped exploring the music world
since. My childhood music tutor taught me about classical, some good teenage friends shared a
taste for folk and progressive rock, a guitar-obsessed boss soon gave me a listening course in
blues with a side of Miles and Jaco, and it's only kept snowballing from there. I like to think I've
occasionally gleaned something from digging into everything available and obsessing over it
more than is probably healthy.
The Philly scene provides a great way of supporting my habit, at least when there isn't a
pandemic going on. There are worse addictions to have, right?
