I am a versatile musician. My first instrument played was the drums. I played in church. I played the piano growing up, but didn't start getting lessons and seriously studying until 8th grade. I have experience playing guitar and saxophone, but my main instrument is piano and I'm able to play any style and read/transcribe.

Influences
I first experience Gospel music through churches. My mother had listened to many genres including classical, as a piano player herself. In 8th grade I drifted quickly from classical studies and reading to advanced jazz with technical charts. Throughout high school I got well versed in Latin jazz, Avant guard/ Afro -Cuban music. I began to compette on high school and received All-State honors my senior year in Vermont. In the past five years I have gathered a love for classic, psychedelic, and contemporary rock. In my most humble words, I can pretty much play the phonebook.
