While studying English Literature and Psychology there, he recorded and produced hip hop from his dorm room and hosted a hip hop show on WBAR college radio. Later, he took courses under Brad Garton and Terry Pender at the Columbia Computer Music Center with other Columbia musicians, including Reni Lane. Given 24-hour access to the 125th St. studio, he created his first sample-based tracks in 2008 in Digital Performer and later in Logic Pro.
