Embedded Files
I'm an Oakland-based musician, accompanist, writer and multi-media artist. I grew up in Northern Michigan and studied music, composition, and writing at Oberlin College and Conservatory, where I earned degrees in contemporary percussion performance and creative writing. At Oberlin, I began my lifelong love of working as a dance accompanist, playing for modern classes and collaborating with student and faculty choreographers.
I currently live in Northern California where I stay active with studio gigs, playing for dance, and experimenting with sample-based music. I play with ODC, the Dominican BFA program at Alonzo King Lines Ballet, UC Berkeley's Theater and Dance Department, and the contact improv community.
