I do many things at Kards Unlimited. These include working with customers as best fits their needs, checking in and stocking inventory, putting out products, editing and updating their website, and filling in with whatever role I am needed in, including acting as the manager.

In the Music Department at the University of Pittsburgh, I performed general office duties including answering phones, working as the building guard, answering questions, taking and receiving deliveries, and providing information to any students or staff that came in, organized and fulfilled form and key requests, rented out lockers and office supplies, as well as different tasks as assigned by my superiors in the department. Additionally, I worked at different departmental events, including on and off-campus concerts and festivals. At these events, I would greet people at the door, take tickets, set up and tear down the stage setups, photograph events, and stage-manage concerts. I also worked for the Heinz Chapel Choir; gathering and inputting information for tickets, greeting people at the doors, and running the lighting for the shows.

Red Paint was an acoustic rock band that I formed with my former guitar teacher and her husband. I began by playing percussion in the form of cajon, shaker, and congas. I later branched out and started to learn and perform songs on acoustic guitar, bass, ukulele, and mandolin. In preparation for the multi-hour sets at local bars and festivals, I chose songs to cover and helped arrange and write some new material that became an EP that we recorded in late 2015.

Project Looking Glass was a rock band that I formed with my older brother and a friend from high school. We played everything from bar-rock to pop-punk. I began as the drummer and switched to guitar when my older brother left for college. I served as the bandleader. I chose songs, formed setlists, and booked shows at local events.

Split Resistance was a rock band that I played drums in. I formed it with my older brother and some friends from high school. We played two to three times a month around our hometown at different bars and festivals. Our shows were typically three hours long, and our material ranged from basic bar rock to country and acoustic music.
