The Spark

Because The Eternal Flame Was Taken

The Backstory

[COMING IN SEPTEMBER]

In September, and in honor of Spinal Tap II, this page will feature a modern day telling of what is RiF through short form content dispatched over social media.

It could be a nightmare.

It could genius.

Let me add to the pot - it will have special guest stars both real and otherwise, it will feature adult situations and gratuitous tastelessness and it will remind you of those shows that gripped you in your childhood. Like everything else RiF, it will be rewired and relevant to you NOW.

And its name? Catching Up With Reduction in Force - cause nothing else would do.

The Ethos

I want to up-level the world around me, so I started a band. It mushroomed from there.

Me

  • Principled Intensity with a Sense of Humor and a lot of Heart.

The Purpose

  • Use my position and privilege to build a world that needs to exist.

  • One defined by truth and emotional resonance

  • One that provides clarity

Ain’t she perty?

Riffs That Changed The World

A podcast about falling in love with music.

2024—it was a simpler time. I wasn’t ready to make music yet, but unknowingly, I was honing my craft by talking about it. It brought me closer to the fire—close enough to feel the heat, to get a taste that ignited something deeper.

Along the way, I had some incredible conversations with people who didn’t just love music—they built their lives around it.
