His path into songwriting was largely unplanned. At 16, he picked up his great-grandfather&rsquo;s worn Gibson guitar, weathered and out of tune, and discovered a passion that would reshape his life.1From there, he began teaching himself to play, eventually sharing original songs online, and building an audience drawn to his raw, reflective storytelling.
