Honors Thesis Project - Interactive Storybook App Concept
For this project, I wanted to create a concept app that followed the simple children's story of Squirrel and Bunny on their day together. I designed the artwork and programmed everything directly on the iPad to create a short series of activities, aimed at children age 1-3. I used the Demibooks Composer Pro application for the programming, and completed the artwork all in Inkscape. Stock photo backgrounds were licensed from Shutterstock.

Original Music & Covers
I enjoy playing guitar, bass, piano, drums, and singing., and have composed a number of songs and instrumental pieces. I love performing and recording just about any style of music.
Recently, I cut a lead guitar track on a song submitted in the Best Rock Song category for this year's Grammys® entitled “Logan’s Lament” [For Your Consideration if you're a voting member of the Grammy® Recording Academy]. This is the beginning of a full-length album [and possibly film] for the Amazon Top Selling mystery novel “Dead Balance”. Inspired by real events, it's a fictional story about the life of Logan, a young orphan troubled by his past. To seek his destiny, he must face many demons—both real and imaginary. As the Hopi say, ‘Inside every spirit is a fight between two bears. One evil; one good. Which bear will win?’ For Logan, and for each of us, ‘The bear we feed.’
