Life & Career Milestones
My path in life took a while to figure out
1.
Started to make "songs" in cheap music making software such as fruity loops.
2.
Began making beats for a friends hip hop group, it was my first challenge in music making.
3.
Took more interest in producing music and started at an Audio Engineering school in Hollywood, CA.
4.
Then I was told that some of my music would do well in film and tv. Gave me hope for a future.
5.
Got a few songs placed in Roadtrip Nation and signed to music licensing companies. More hope.
