Been playing banjo since May 2011. I didn't get into bluegrass until early 2010 after my dad had me listen to the original Mercury recordings of Flatt & Scruggs. After that, I was hooked and I'm glad I began to appreciate bluegrass music and all it has to offer.
Commissioned as a Coast Guard officer in May 2016 after four years of study at the Coast Guard Academy. I've been commissioned for 4 years now, and excited to see what the next few chapters have to offer.
