Where Music and Learning Meet
I'm a music educator, composer, and performer who creates joyful, inclusive learning experiences that help students discover their voices through creativity, connection, and meaningful musical engagement.
Building Creative, Connected Classrooms
With 30 years of international experience as a performer, composer, and educator, I partner with schools and organizations to design vibrant, student-centered music programs. My background spans international jazz performance, curriculum design, education technology, and K-12 classroom teaching—giving me a broad and practical understanding of how people learn, create, and grow through music.
A central thread in my work is social-emotional learning through the arts. I incorporate drumming and movement-based activities to foster focus, empathy, teamwork, and self-expression. Drawing on structured social-emotional arts frameworks, I create musical experiences that strengthen classroom community while building essential life skills.
Whether you’re developing a new curriculum, deepening arts integration, or seeking meaningful ways to support student well-being through music, I bring artistic depth, pedagogical clarity, and a commitment to joyful, inclusive learning.
