Welcome! About Me…
I am the French horn player with the touring wind quintet the City of Tomorrow. Formed in 2010, the City of Tomorrow were Gold Medalists at the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, and were recipients of a Chamber Music America Classical Commissioning Grant for “Leander and Hero,” by composer Gabriel Jenks. In addition to my work with the City of Tomorrow, I hold positions with the Oregon Ballet Theater Orchestra and the Portland Opera Orchestra. I also play regularly with the Memphis Symphony Orchestra, the IRIS Orchestra in Germantown, Tennessee, and the Arkansas Symphony in Little Rock. I tour with my strange performance art Wagner Tuba band, the Lawrence Graduate Bayreuth Tuben Quintet and in the summers teach at Young Musicians and Artists as well as Greenwood Summer Camp. I have been on faculty at the University of Oregon, the University of Mississippi, and Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. For my full biography, click here.

I invite you to explore my website...
There are upcoming chances to see me play on the Calendar page. There are videos, audio, and pictures of all kinds on my Media page. Students interested in lessons should check out my Students tab. I am transgender, which means that I was assigned female at birth but now move through the world as a man. For more information about this, please check out my History page.
