Where Vulnerability & Creativity Intersect
Recollections and reflections on making a new Converge album.
My first offering on this platform is to be an in-depth look into the process of making an album—my personal reflection on everything that goes into it. I'm unsure how it will read, and I've come to terms with that uncertainty. Some entries will be heavy, others light; some will be artistic, while others might simply be descriptive. All of it is my account of the process as it evolves.
I've never consistently journaled before, at least not in this way. Typically, I write in bursts when the mood strikes, chasing the muse and collecting epiphanies to sift through later. This will be different. I’m letting you into the space where my vulnerability and creativity intersect. I want to show you a more detailed picture of who I am—both personally and artistically. My hope is to connect with you on a deeper level as we capture the music, art, and lyrics and bring it to final form.
The recording process begins this week.
Join me on the journey.

Excited to read along. I’m in the final stages of releasing my first album, and I was lucky enough to work with Ben Koller on a couple of songs.
