I'm excited to start posting my 22-23 events! I have a mix of adjudicating, and chamber and solo performances throughout this season. I will continue to add to my schedule things that are finalized, so be on the lookout for a mini-Indiana tour in spring 2023 as well!

It has been bittersweet to say goodbye to Indiana, which had been home to me for the past 11 years. However, I am excited to have recently settled in Santa Fe, New Mexico! I will be starting to teach at the University of New Mexico - Los Alamos campus, while continuing private lessons (online and in-person), performing, and adjudicating in the Southwest.

Stay tuned, as I will soon be announcing concerts and events in the 2022-2023 season!

On February 19th, 2022, I will be in Bloomington, IN to take part in the Indiana chapter of the National Society of Arts and Letters Competition as an adjudicator. This year's competition is solely for piano, and we will be picking a winner to represent Indiana at the National Awards Competition at Chicago, IL.

I am excited to announce two performances in central Indiana for March 2022!

The first will be at the inaugural concert series at Purdue University, West Lafayette on March 27th, at 4pm. The concert will feature the unveiling of their new Steinway grand piano at Hilel Theatre, and feature Purdue University faculty and guest artists. I will be playing works by G. Faure, and Purdue composer Harry Bulow.

The second concert will be as a part of the Lively Arts Series at Indiana University East, in Richmond on March 31st at 7pm. This is a concert of works by Dr. Nathan Froebe, and I will be playing Froebe's Rhapsodic Fantasia for Tenor Saxophone, and a chamber work for piano, flute, percussion, and tenor saxophone.
