Alex

Music has seeped through my entire life and I feel that same connection with everyone that has ever heard music. Anyone that has heard it can learn music, and there is no clear line for any education. To form our connections with music and real life and how the beat and rhythm goes on is an essential pillar to my ideologies in the art of music and music making.

I have a graduate college certificate in Music Performance from Holland College School of Performing Arts, which included performance, theory, and business courses in all styles of popular music. I studied guitar privately from ages seven to nineteen. Outside of professional training, I have performed in a multitude of musical groups from independent to professional touring and/or residencies over the course of the past twelve years.
