Howdy!
I am a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, composer, arranger, and amateur audio engineer living in the West Chester area in Pennsylvania. I have my own means of transportation so traveling is not an issue.
I have a Bachelors degree in music composition, as well as an extensive knowledge of music history and theory. I studied under the instruction of David Bennett Thomas and Norman David in composition, as well as David Brown (former Curtis graduate) in piano.
I also have a mild knowledge of programs such as Adobe photoshop, Movavi video editor, etc.
If I can assist your endeavors in any way possible, feel free to reach out!
Thanks for reading!
