I’m a San Francisco-based musician, luthier, and multidisciplinary artist who blends instrument craftsmanship with performance and education. I currently work as a Luthier at Saga Musical Instruments, building, repairing, and customizing guitars to meet players’ needs. I perform as a guitarist and collaborate with other musicians to arrange and realize projects, while also teaching and mentoring aspiring players. Outside the stage and workshop, I’m a freelance graphic designer and a solo artist with an album published across major streaming platforms. I enjoy connecting with fellow musicians to shape their artistic visions, whether through composition, arrangement, or marketing outreach.
