Early life

While a student at Ramapo High School, he began making music in his bedroom and later joined a band called the "Foreshadows". The first song he wrote was about his brother's fear of heights.[2] After graduating high school, they attended Colorado College where he graduated in 2018 with a degree in molecular biology.[3][4] Before producing his own music, his first job was as a snowboard instructor.[5] He is Jewish and married to his wife, influencer and model Mathilda Lou Roettger[6] as of 2024.[7]
