I spent nearly 8 years in a red van driving across the country with my best friends wearing ridiculous American Apparel v-necks, sporting bad haircuts and playing music.

I left that glamorous life and my beloved Seattle where I grew a deep appreciation for music while listening to bands like Death Cab For Cutie, Rocky Votolato, Gatsbys American Dream behind and planted roots down south in Nashville, TN, where I spent the last 6 years running a small record label called South By Sea Music.

Recently parting ways with the company I've decided its time to start something of my own. I am managing a few artists / writers / producers while also offering visual branding for clients looking to hire a charming and talented freelance designer. Decided to call the company 'Proud Dad' because.. why not?
