Hello!

I’m a saxophonist and music educator who has been teaching at colleges and universities for over eleven years.

I specialize in classical, avant-garde, jazz, and commercial music.

Currently, I teach saxophone at Stetson University. I have also taught at Bethune-Cookman University, Full Sail Univeristy, and Ithaca College.
