I’m a Junior Deals Writer here at Guitar World. I regularly test and review music gear with a focus on guitars, amps, pedals, modelers, and pretty much anything else guitar-related. I'm responsible for over 60 buying guides and a large part of my job is helping guitarists find the best deals on gear. I worked in music retail for 5 years at Dawsons Music and Northwest Guitars, and have written for various music sites including MusicRadar, Guitar Player, Guitar.com, Ultimate Guitar, and Thomann’s t.blog. 


I’m a regularly gigging guitarist with over 20 years of experience playing live and producing bands covering everything from jazz to djent. I've gigged all over the country in more dingy venues than you can shake a drop-tuned guitar at. When I’m not holed up in my home studio or curating playlists on Spotify, you’ll find me making a racket with Northern noise hounds JACKALS
