Hi, I’m Cali.

Unfortunately, I was neither born in nor named after California. Instead, I grew up in Florida and have lived in progressively colder places ever since. Most recently, I moved from New York to Colorado, where I’ve spent most of my time trying — and failing — to mountain bike, grow my own vegetables, and find a decent bagel. But I’m nothing if not persistent.

I’ve worked on everything from chicken sandwiches to professional wrestling and am at my best when faced with a niche subculture, a tight budget, and any opportunity to write a song.
