What got you into music, and if you had not gotten into music what would you be doing today? My musical journey has been a pretty long and winding road. I started playing music when I was about 6 years old and have continued to play in some form or another ever since. The biggest catalyst for me pursuing music professionally was probably when injuries derailed my career as a competitive skier in my early 20s. After that, I dove so deeply into making music just out of a necessity for self-expression that I never really turned back once I started really getting into writing songs and performing outside of just my living room. With all of that being said, I think that if I hadn’t gotten into music I would probably be doing something in the ski or outdoor industry I imagine. If things had shaken out a little differently that’s probably where I’d be now but as it stands I couldn’t be happier with how things have turned out.
