“After I graduated there was a brief stint in Nashville and an almost unmentionable few months couch-surfing in LA before I came back to my hometown. I guess I thought at the time Austin would be ideal because it offered both the music and film scenes. Since then, I’ve performed under my own name as a songwriter and joined the bands of Mayeux & Broussard, Kathryn Legendre, and Garrett T. Capps on bass and backing vocals while also freelancing on all sorts of film and television productions.

In this life I’ve traveled and lived abroad; I’ve helped women find the right shoes; guided folks to the right keg for their event and then delivered it to them; swept the floors of medical clinics, bars, and offices; taxied the drunk college kids from campus to “San Jack” and back; worked and attended major festivals; gone door to door for the Census Bureau; been a part of major studio productions, Oscar-winning documentaries, and the most independent of independent films; and served drinks to both amazing and terrible people.

I’ve performed in front of no one and packed houses.

Though it’s not all sunny days I’ve had a very good time so far. I have an amazing life with my partner Hannah and we just welcomed our son Arlo into the world. We have so much ahead of us and I can’t wait to see what’s next.” - VoyageAustin.com
