ABOUT

I'm an electric bassist based out of New York City. I play both jazz as well as pop and covers, and have played gigs with various combos and bands for both.

I have been playing bass since 2015, but am a classically trained pianist with 10+ years of music and theory work.

I am pursuing music full time, and can rehearse or gig any day or time of day.
