ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm a pianist, composer, bandleader, and music teacher living in Austin, TX. I've taught piano, theory, and composition at Greater Austin Music Academy since 2017, and since 2018 I've been the keys player in Assorted Chocolates, a blue-jazz group led by bassist Harold McMillan that hosts the Blue Monday Blues Jam at Kenny Dorham’s Backyard.

I also lead and write the music for Glossolalia Online, a jazz rap project that’s a collaboration with Austin rapper Ratarue, a fixture of the Austin scene since the 90s.

​​

My music has been performed by the Austin Symphony Orchestra, Inversion Ensemble, Boulder Chorale, and the Colorado Honor Band Association, and range from electroacoustic pieces for a single performer to operatic stage works and pieces for large orchestra. I've studied composition with included Yevgeniy Sharlat, Daniel Kellogg, Carter Pann, Michael Theodore, John Drumheller, and Adam Gorb. I graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2017 with a BM Composition degree.
