I've been a musician since early childhood. My parents performed and recorded professionally, and I first picked up the guitar at around 8 years old.
I took private lessons off and on through my teen years, started several garage bands and studied percussion in middle school and high school.
After graduating High School in 2003, I enrolled in a music program at Fullerton College in Southern California, where I studied jazz guitar, music theory and ear training, and recording engineering until summer 2005.
From 2004-2010, I performed in dozens of projects throughout Southern California. I performed jazz, hip hop, reggae, rock and roll, funk, folk, pop and more. During that time I continued to study independently and occasionally took private lessons with some of the areas best musicians from a range of disciplines including pianists, percussionists and guitarists.
From 2005-2010 I taught private guitar lessons at a teaching studio in Brea, CA. My roster included over 40 students from age 7 to 70.
In December 2010, I took a gig as lead guitarist for a rock and roll tap dance production which toured throughout China for 10 weeks.
In 2011 I relocated to San Francisco and started a project with Bay Area songwriter Maria Quiles, called Quiles & Cloud ((concealed information) Between 2011 to 2017, Quiles & Cloud performed over 400 shows in 38 states and recorded 3 studio albums, including "Shake Me Now" produced by Grammy award winner Alison Brown and released on Compass Records in 2017.
I now reside in Santa Cruz, CA and am involved in a project called Echoes & Artifacts ((concealed information) as well as multiple collaborations around the Bay Area.
