I'm a recording engineer, guitar player, drummer and music producer.
I have recently received a Bachelor Degree of Professional Studies from 5 Towns College in Business Management and Audio Recording Technology.
I have close to a decade of recording experience through education and hands on work in my studio.
I am currently working on a musical project group called STONE LOTTERY. It is a Blues-Driven Southern Rock / Heavy Metal Project in the vein of PANTERA, DOWN, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY, DOWN and more... I write and record Guitars as well as Bass.
I am also currently playing Drums for a Brooklyn-based Hardcore project called COURAGE LIKE THIS. It is a Hardcore-influenced medley of destructive beatdowns, slow two-steps and drop-tuned noise. Kind of like SEPULTURA's "ROOTS" meets SIX FOOT DITCH.
I have played in many bands in New York such as Kings County's Toughest Hardcore band, LINE OF SCRIMMAGE Drums: Jan 2005 - Feb 2008
as well as
IN CONSTANT REFRAIN Guitar, backing Vox: July 2006 - March 2007
DeadBabyFloat *side project* Vox: Summer 2006
JUST ONE CHANCE Guitar, backing Vox: Jan 2004 - July 2006
Vox: Jan 2002 - Dec 2003
Drums: June 2001 - Dec 2001
mRjAKfROST Guitar, backing Vox: Oct 2000 - May 2001
...additional appearances include guest vocals for Only The Strong (demo)
and live vocals for PineBoxSlumberParty and
Dead Truth.
My goal is to give my bands an honest and clear recording
