In 1994, he began a musical journey as a bass player performing with classical and jazz bands in his hometown of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan - during which time he won a scholarship to attend the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. As a result of his exposure to classical and jazz, his musical style was solidified in improvisational techniques and theory – which has become a hallmark of his live electronic performance as an artist.
Three of his albums have been nominated for best electronic recording of the year for 2015, 2016 and 2019 by the Western Canadian Music Awards. His work garnered another nomination by the Calgary Music awards for Best Electronic Artist of the Year in 2016.
