About Me
I am a musician, guide, and outdoorsman living in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I’ve worked as a sailing instructor, ski instructor, backpacking guide, and wildlife guide. I’ve been performing live music for over a decade. I love good tunes, real conversations, nature, good food, and the Tetons.
After many failed attempts at learning an instrument, I finally picked up the guitar at age 10. For the first time, I felt excited and motivated to learn about music. I learned to play by listening to the Beatles and other classic rock artists, trying to replicate their sound by finding the notes they played on the fretboard. In middle school, my mom encouraged me to try singing while playing guitar. I wrote my first song when I was 16. At age 18, I formed a band and released a three song EP featuring my own original works. I landed my first paid gig that summer.
After moving to Jackson Hole in 2021, I started attending the Hootenanny at the Silver Dollar Bar every Monday. It was there that I met mandolinist Sophia Harnew-Spradley and vocalist/songwriter Tori Lund. Sophia and I started to book gigs around the valley as a duo, playing under the name Lupine Way. Meanwhile, Tori and I started collaborating on original music and co-wrote several songs together, playing as Fly in Honey. In 2025, my two duos merged into a new group— we named it Float Trip.
For me, playing music is about community and connection. Some of my closest relationships are with my fellow musicians. I feel so grateful that I get to perform and create professionally!
