Musical Performance and Composition

In the beginning of 2023, my roomate asked me to help compose the music to a song she had written called "We're Not in France." I composed the piano and guitar chords for the song, and some of our friends joined in on drums, bass, and keyboard. We formed our official band "Ad Rem." I play rhythm guitar in the recording sessions with the band below.

Musical Influences

The Beatles

The Beatles are easily my favorite band of all time and have been the greatest influence to me in my music. I grew up listening to them and their music is some of the first songs I learned on guitar when I was younger.

Grateful Dead

My dad introduced me to the Grateful Dead and I grew to love their musical improvisation and lead guitar. Their music has been an influence in my own band Ad Rem.

Arctic Monkeys

I began listening to the Arctic Monkeys in middle school after my older sister introduced me to contemporary alternative music. I enjoy their minor key transitions as well as their versitility.
