About

I’m a lifelong musician, known now for my extreme metal projects Pull The Strings, AOECIST, Shrouded Mirror, Mind Prisoner, and others, as well as my noise project The Noiseless Aura. All told, I’m in over fifteen music projects currently. I make music as a means to escape reality most often.

I’m also a mixing and mastering engineer. I’ve been doing that full-time at Hanging Puppet Audio since January 2025. I’ve honed my skills from working on so much of my own music over the years, and now I’m helping others polish up the vision in their heads for the world to enjoy.

In 2023, I joined forces with Adrian Gutierrez to start Hauntology Records. We are a DIY record label focused on showcasing extreme, experimental, and introspective auditory creations to the world. We’ve put out a ton of cassette tapes, CDs, and vinyl records since our inception, and it’s been one of the great passions of my life to work on that with Adrian.

Lastly, I’ve recently committed to writing a book. I won’t consider myself a writer for quite some time, but I’m all in on it. The ultimate purpose of this blog is partly to talk about writing books, on top of the music stuff.
