And here's some more info about me 😁

I am a composer and music educator based in San Francisco, California. Music has always been a huge part of my life, and I'm passionate about making it accessible to as many people as possible.

When I'm not composing, I love to indulge in some of my hobbies like Dungeons & Dragons 🎲, World of Warcraft 🕹, and spending time with my dog, Fillmore 🐶. It's important to me to have a balanced life both inside and outside of my work

I was inspired to pursue composition because I wanted to create unique and accessible sonic experiences. Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to win various academic and music-related awards. However, I'm most proud of my projects that aim to bring the joy of music to as broad of an audience as possible.

Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to win various academic and music-related awards. However, I'm most proud of my projects that aim to bring the joy of music to as broad of an audience as possible. As a music educator, I firmly believe that people are inherently more musical than they give themselves credit for. My goal is to empower listeners, performers, and students to explore the depths of their musicality. I aspire to inspire a new generation of musically fascinated people to have a broader definition and appreciation of music. I'm excited to share my music and education with you, and I hope to connect with you on this musical journey.

Can you tell me more about accessibility? 🤓

As someone who has a passion for music, I believe that accessibility in music is crucial for empowering individuals who may have been alienated by the rigidities of Western traditions. Personally, I have encountered barriers to accessing music due to my dyslexia, but through soul searching, I have found ways to make the music notation process more accessible for myself. This has inspired me to create music that removes literacy as a barrier to entry for performers and provides a unique sonic experience for those who tune in.

I believe that promoting accessibility in music can benefit society as a whole by inspiring people to acknowledge and celebrate their innate musicality. By making performance, notation, and means of listening to music more accessible, we can create a more inclusive and equitable world where everyone has the opportunity to experience the transformative power of music.
