Jesse is currently busy working to discover and develop new artists and to help them launch their careers in music. He enjoys producing and teaching them how to brand themselves and how to navigate the ups and downs of the industry. Eager to transition into a full time career in the Audio Production industry, Jesse is always looking to make connections everywhere he goes & to continue producing music that can impact the culture & stand the test of time.
Jesse has a Bachelors of Science in Audio Production from Full Sail University and is positioning himself to expand his studio and start his own record label within the next few years. Cultivating an environment where musicians can freely express themselves without being confined to the rules of most labels, but still having the support they would need to help establish themselves has always been Jesse's goal. As he takes steps toward turning that dream into a reality, you can be sure that there is plenty of music left to be made!
