My love of music began when I first started playing alto saxophone at age 10 in the elementary school band. In middle school, I started playing bassoon in the concert band, clarinet in the marching band, as well as keeping up alto sax in the jazz band. In high school, I picked up the flute and tenor sax, continuing to play in the school's various music programs.

In college, I began touring with the jazz-funk group PUF as a permanent member, as well as the blues group The Blue Byrds as a guest artist. I started giving private saxophone lessons in college as well.

Today, I'm always open to playing live shows, adding a human touch to your music project in the studio, or helping a beginner saxophonist learn the right techniques!
