About Me

Photo of me

I was born in rural Maine. I came to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to attend Carnegie Mellon University. I graduated with a degree in Psychology, but I also spent time studying Electrical Engineering and Anthropology.

I play electronic music, but with the goal of creating organic sounding music. I worked to record a soundtrack for one of my favorite books, City of Saints and Madmen, by Jeff VanderMeer.

Besides music, I am also an amateur photographer and a hobbyist cordwainer (shoemaker). I volunteer with Venture Outdoors, assisting on hikes in the Pittsburgh region.
