CURRENT MISSION

To see, and do everything! I also want to share my music with the world and get inspired by other cultures.
ABOUT ME

I'm a full time musician-folk, rock, blues, pop, experimental. I love strangers and storytelling, exploring the outdoors, and learning other languages. I'm pretty athletic, and enjoy running, hiking, and biking. I live for stimulating conversation over coffee(which I am happily addicted to), good wine, or great beer. I'm not a strict vegetarian, but I prefer to eat fish in moderation when I have the option.. I love veggies! Above all, I love to travel and meet new friends/family and exchange cultural wealth.

PHILOSOPHY

Never let fear be your motivation. Always start with compassion.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Got my first record deal with an international label (Stonebear & mayor)! I competed in American Idol season 11 in 2011 (I made it to the top 40! I toured Mallorca with my high school band in 2009. Worked as a singer for the Houston Texans cheerleaders from 2010 to 2012. I made a living off of playing rock music and selling coffee before moving to the live music capitol to finish my college degree. In college I was an active member of the UT water ski team.
Have now skydived and taken a ride in a hot air balloon.
I couch surfed in 2014 across 14 countries in Europe and the Middle East.
