Music Production - I specialize in making modern, radio-ready sounding tracks. I love to work in many genres but hip-hop, pop, and dancehall are my favorites.

Keyboardist - As a keyboardist, I have toured and performed in more than 60 countries, and have been nominated for a Grammy award. I live to perform and keyboard is my weapon of choice.

Dan is an incredible musician, producer, songwriter, and engineer. I have been working with him for over 15 years and his talent never ceases to amaze me. His workflow is quick paced, he is a wizard at his DAW stations and his turnaround time is unbelievably impressive. He is a phenomenal pianist, keyboardist, and multi-instrumentalist and can play in many styles and genres. He has an extensive knowledge of music theory which makes him well equipped for various projects as a songwriter and producer. He is great in every capacity!
