Personal

Outside of work, I’m deeply passionate about music and the creative arts. I'm currently producing an album and play a range of instruments, including guitar 🎸, trumpet 🎺, tenor and soprano saxophone 🎷, and percussion 🥁. As a former member of the Atkinson Warrior Band, I served as Assistant Bandmaster and performed internationally—holding first-chair trumpet roles in military parades, on cruises, and at other global events. I also have a strong background in competitive gaming, previously ranking among the top 1,000 players in Rainbow Six Siege (13x champion) and becoming one of the highest net-worth players on Hypixel Skyblock. Beyond music and gaming, I’m passionate about writing—seeing it as the bridge between thought and reality. It’s a medium I turn to often for both creativity and clarity. Some of my favorite pursuits include winter sports like skiing ⛷️ and snowboarding 🏂, fitness and the gym, photography 📸, attending live concerts 🎫, spending time with animals 🐶, exploring global car culture 🚗🌎, financial markets 💸, and making memories with my niece.

in my spare time, i spent a lot of it listening to music. i can't get enough of music, and i am actively working on an album. my favorite genres are r&b, house. check out artists like kaytranada, frank ocean, & clara la san.

beyond music, i love writing. i believe writing is the bridge between thought and reality, a timeless act of creation that gives life to expression.

below i'm picturing some of my favorite activities and general things. skiing & snowboarding (really any winter sport), photography, animals, and spending time with my niece.
