Timeless acoustic-folk and pop songwriter. As an experienced singer-songwriter I'd love to help you turn your ideas into the full songs you envisioned. I have written for some great artists and for TV. Besides songwriting I can also create acoustic productions and artist development for singer songwriters.
My strengths lie in writing strong hook melodies, memorable guitar sections and heartfelt lyrics.
I love helping artists perfectly capture their story in a song.
My main influences are: Ed Sheeran / Bon Iver / Dermot Kennedy / Hozier / Noah Kahan / Jeremy Zucker / Billie Eilish / Taylor Swift / Post Malone / Zach Bryan / Ben Howard / Phoebe Bridgers / Novo Amor.
A perfectionist at heart, I will dedicate myself to your project until we are both satisfied.
I would love to help you by:
- Writing or cowriting a full song from scratch/concept
- Writing a topline/melodies or lyrics for your existing project
- Composing & recording acoustic guitar sections for your song / production
- Providing Artist Development for singer-songwriters

Working with Ara was a true joy. We put our heads together to finalize production and mix a song he produced, and it was a rewarding, collaborative experience from the very beginning to the final mix.
