ABOUT
I am a classically trained violinist~ I play professionally & love music of all genres. I have extensive performance experience as well as studio experience. I am available for hire for studio sessions & special occasions. I currently play fiddle for the Living Water Riverband, and the violinist for the praise team my church (contemporary Christian music) and perform classical pieces for weddings & special events. I've played numerous venues in DFW over the years including during my time as a violinist in the deathmetal band Theatrical Death. I play "by ear" as well as by notation and am accustomed to creating "on the fly" by improvisation.
