My background is in the study of music. I am an electro-acoustic composer and a professor of music.

I have been composing Wayfarer music as a personal hobby since 1994. The majority of my time has been devoted to my studies and teaching courses.

BIO

My musical journey really started when I was 8 years old and began studying saxophone. In high school, learning how to improvise and create music on the spot inspired me to pursue music in college. After completing a BA in Music from Lebanon Valley College, I went to Penn State where I studied an MM in Saxophone Performance and an MM in Composition/Theory. Soon after this, I moved to Miami, where I studied an MM in Media Writing and Production. I began teaching at Miami-Dade College and the University of Miami at this point. I then studied a DMA in Composition at the University of Miami.

Now that my academic studies are complete, I am really enjoying teaching music as a career and composing music in my spare time. Throughout my academic career, I have been working on Wayfarer music alongside of my studies. Now that my studies are complete, I am devoting more time to Wayfarer music. Having performed in everything from orchestras, jazz bands, to pop groups and having written for everything from orchestras, chamber ensembles, and electronic media Wayfarer music draws from my eclectic background.
