He started playing piano at the age of three, and gave himself the name "Shmedly" at age thirteen because "there were too many Ryans around."

In [[2002]] he was briefly recruited as a session keyboardist for Weezer and can be heard on various tracks from the recording sessions for [[Album 5 demos|the band's intended fifth album]].
