I was born in sterling Colorado Jan 1 1985. I graduated from sterling high school in 2003. All my life music held a special place in my heart. I played in a punk rock band in high school but got more interested in the production part of music more than playing in a band. I interned at a recording studio in Westminster Colorado for a few months and then moved on to a music production school in Phoenix Arizona called the conservatory of recording arts. I graduated from that school and moved on to get a job in Los Angeles California. I worked in music production in Los Angeles for a decade working on movie soundtracks and recording records for various artists in the music scene. My whole life I struggled with drug and alcohol addiction which progressed into adulthood. I lost my gig in Los Angeles because of my addiction and from multiple arrests because of my addiction as well. I moved back to Colorado late 2015 to get sober, which didn’t happen right away. I got into more issues with the legal system and had forced sobriety for a short period of time. Once out of the laws eyes I slowly fell back into my old ways which then landed me into finally reaching out for real help. I found Spero in a a detox I was in and left detox and spent time at Spero rehabilitating. Spero saved my life and I couldn’t be more happy being a part of this team and helping others. I went through a recovery coaching class to become a recovery coach and am working towards being CAC certified. Thanks for reading!
