My aesthetic is acoustic, ethnic, about people, peace, social justice, and beauty of spirit. Wherever I have played, my music is very well received. I play an international mix of Latin, Classical, Jazz, Celtic, Pop Rock, and Folk. I play instrumental sets, vocal sets, and music for adults, children, or mixed audiences.
I am keenly interested in colaborating with other musicians with similar aesthetics. I am willing to do vocals, guitar, cello, fiddle, tenor recorder, charango, and some percussion for other established performers.
I have worked as a music educator and a Spanish teacher as my day job for many years. I was a voice major in college and have a BA in music education and can read music or improvise on all the instruments I play.
