ABOUT

I am a classically trained cellist and bassist who played professionally for many years first in Seattle, then in NYC. I have extensive knowledge and experience playing jazz, R&B, Hip-Hop and played/toured/recorded with many artists in other genres including indie rock, country, jam scene, etc. I quit playing music around 2009 in order to raise a family and begin a new career. Now looking to get back into playing good music with good people. Not interested in heavy gigs/touring/commitment, etc.
