ARTIST DEVELOPMENT & CREATIVE DIRECTION

My native passion in music is rooted in my days as a classically & traditionally trained violinist. As a budding & prominent member in the Los Angeles youth mariachi scene, I was fortunate enough to have been trained by world-renowned Mexican folk group, Mariachi Los Camperos de Nati Cano. Under their instruction, I was taught to respect the craft of quality music & performance. This immediately became a character trait I would carry in life. For example, as an architecture student at UC Berkeley, I utilized this new inherent trait to refine my ability to develop & execute quality work. Though after 4 years in the architecture industry, I realized that music never ceased seeking me. It is & forever will be where I am the happiest. Which brings us to the present day... Instead of discrediting my career shift from architecture, the music industry acknowledged that I possess an advantageous balance between creative & rational intellect. I would also like to note that it is not unprecedented for an individual to pursue the music industry with an atypical background. Upcoming artists, like former-law doctorate Josef Salvat, are living proof of the creative ingenuity that can be unveiled from multidisciplinary ventures. With all this in mind, I look forward to further expanding my knowledge & expertise in the music industry.
