My love of music and lyric writing began in his early teens. At age fifteen I began my recording endeavors leading to the culmination of several releases on my own independent label, Paradise Boutique Records. I was a granted a scholarship and completed my studies in voice and composition at California State University at Northridge.

My love of world culture and music inspired me to create two global compilations for K-Tel Records and to include a myriad of ethnic instruments in my own compositions. In 2002 I released, Heart of the Mother, a retrospective collection that spans over two decades of musical exploration.

I have developed a unique musical style, which includes cedar flute, voice, ambient soundscapes, world percussion and technology; a blend of contemporary and world folk traditions. I have produced other artists and composed for film, video, and television. I have also performed as a featured artist at multiple conferences, workshops, and fundraisers.
