I am a full-time contemporary a cappella producer, arranger, engineer, and educator, along with being a singer-songwriter and the bass singer for the award-winning professional R&B/Soul/Pop group, Ball in the House (www.ballinthehouse.com). I'm also an official voting member of The Recording Academy (Class of 2023) -- I participate in the voting process of THE GRAMMYs® (www.recordingacademy.com).
I started my music career by receiving a Bachelor of Music in Combination with an Outside Field in Media Communication (B.M.) from the Ithaca College School of Music. At Ithaca, I had the distinct pleasure of being a four-year member in the award-winning a cappella group, Ithacappella. Based just outside of Boston, MA, I have given numerous workshops and master classes all around the continental United States. My work in the recording business has won and been nominated for multiple Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards (CARA), along with appearing on several prestigious compilation albums, such as SING, Best of College A Cappella (BOCA), and Voices Only. As an arranger and performer, I have also gained regional and national recognition at the Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella Festival. Outside of time with Ball in the House, I am a Substitute Teacher/Paraprofessional Educator in the Westborough Public Schools (Westborough, MA, U.S.A.), a Virtual Coach for the A Cappella Education Association, and a Delegate Officer of the Ithacappella Alumni Association.
Outside of music, I enjoy reading mystery/suspenseful, thriller books, taking trips to Old Orchard Beach, ME, U.S.A, playing Nintendo Switch and a variety of board/deck building games, refining my Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game skills, and spending time with my wife and 1 year old son.
