I am a jazz musician based in Mt. Rainier/DC who focuses on using composition and improvisation as a means to root myself, my fellow musicians, and most importantly, my audiences in our physical spaces. My mission through music is to create and strengthen feelings of connectedness and community. Further, as one of the only French horn players in the country focused on jazz and improvisational music as a primary genre, I am constantly seeking ways to expand the technical and theoretical limitations of my instrument.
