Music has been my life ever since I got my first bass guitar at 12 years old. I had been so obsessed with playing in a rock band that my parents finally caved. Ever since then I've been living a life I can't believe exists for me!
As a teenager, I was in a Christian Metal Band named "People Laugh At Us" that only ever played friends parties and the like. From there, I've been in many projects including the metal band Bear Down, alt rock/emo band birdwatch, and the current band I sing in, Maren.
I moved to Fort Wayne from Quincy, IL on New Years Day of 2022 to start working at Sweetwater in the Guitar Gallery. I moved with my wife, Caitlin, our beautiful son, and our wild dog, Annie. We have all LOVED being here in Fort Wayne and look forward to growing out roots here.
As a Sales Engineer, my personal mission state is to sell the next music legend their first piece of gear. Could that be you?
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.

Interview with Jonah...

Jonah is an outstanding connection for me. He constantly follows up and anytime I have any questions no matter how big or small, he’s always got an answer. He’s so helpful. He’s one of the main reasons I shop at Sweetwater.

Jonah was incredibly helpful throughout my entire buying process. He answered a few technical questions I had about a guitar I was interested in, didn't make me feel pressured into buying something I might not end up liking, was prompt with phone and email correspondence, gave me a good price on the guitar I was interested in, and even followed up a few weeks after my guitar arrived. I have been nothing short of incredibly satisfied with the guitar I purchased, all of Jonah's help, and my experience thus far with sweetwater as a whole. I will be reaching out to him in the future for any of my musical needs down the line.

Absolutely amazed by the personal service on our order! It is obvious customer satisfaction is a priority. Your company would be the first place we would look for music related items. Great prices, great service and BTW, even the little touch of adding some candy made my kids very pleased! Thank you!

I have to say it's the most personal order I've ever made from the pre-ship phone call, to the email, and finally the candy in the box. Thanks! I don't think I could beat the customer service even in a local shop
