🎤 15 years in. Truth over trends. Art over algorithm. I write the songs, produce the sound, and direct every frame. 🎬

Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
I'm inspired by Chris Cornell’s raw vocals—his acoustic songbook tour changed my life. Lead Belly’s unfiltered soul and songwriting haunt me in the best way. I love how Kurt Cobain fused pop hooks with gritty distortion—pure ’90s rock alchemy. And as a filmmaker, I admire how Michael Jackson turned music videos into cinematic events. I’m drawn to artists who break rules and bleed honesty.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at Global Citizen Festival would let me share my heart with a global audience. I hope it encourages others to lean into creativity—whether that’s music or whatever makes them feel most alive. Music changed my life. I'd love to pay that forward.
What would you do with $50,000?
I’d invest in creating a cinematic visual album—recording, filming, and editing an experimental body of work. I’d also upgrade my home studio and, let’s be real, finally get the thinline Telecaster and Deluxe Reverb I’ve been dreaming about.
