CURRENT MISSION

See the world, perform music, and connect with other people!

ABOUT ME

I am originally from the north east but I grew up in southwestern Kentucky. I have a serious passion for music that began very early in life, and I now play music professionally. I have a Bachelor's in Music from Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music. I love traveling and performing, and have been fortunate enough to do so throughout the United States, Brazil, Romania, Colombia, Canada, France, and Italy.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe everything happens for a reason. I believe people are put into your path for a reason, and you should make the most of the relationships given to you. Also, the social/relational world is quite small!
