A little more about me

I started playing piano and singing when I was a kid. Through high school marching band, piano recitals, and collaborating with friends, I was able to foster my love of music into undergrad at Henderson State University. There, I was presented with further opportunity to participate in a variety of ensembles, both on piano and as a vocalist. I was granted the chance to arrange charts, compose for the ensembles at my school, and further my musicianship. I attended grad school at the Pacific Northwest Film Scoring Program, where I graduated with my masters in film scoring and acquiring a host of computer skills, new composition ideas, and a wealth of opportunities to conduct and record with live ensembles.

I am currently an educator at Fusion Academy, and I run my own piano and voice studio in the greater Seattle area. I enjoy working on commissions, some copyist, arrangement, and transcription work, music directing, and working on my original EP. I have recently been accompanying students for competitions, playing local gigs, mentoring composition students, scoring short films, and writing my own musical.
