Misha has a passion for all forms of musical expression. He was introduced to music via piano as a young child, and broadened his horizons in high school by joining every form of music instruction that was available to him, including marching/symphonic band (trumpet, mellophone, and French horn), jazz band (trumpet and bass guitar), chorus (bass/baritone), and musical theater.

These days, Misha focuses on bass guitar as his primary instrument. He started playing bass as a preteen after receiving a hand-me-down bass from a family member, which developed into a lifelong passion. He played in worship bands throughout his teenage and college years, and since May 2025, has been an active core contributor to Ramah Malebranche’s progressive folk project, Wooden Rings.

Born and raised in Central Florida, Misha currently resides in Raleigh, North Carolina.
