Greetings! I'm a professional freelance bassist living in Austin. I have my bachelor's degree in music performance from the University of Northern Colorado. For the past 10 years, I've been working full time as a rhythm section mercenary, performing music in Austin and around the US ranging from country, swing, and rock and roll, to jazz, tango, classical, and world music. I have 22 years of experience teaching private lessons, 8 of those working with students in EISD. Playing the bass has been my life, and sharing some of that experience through lessons is something I'm grateful to have the opportunity to do, has often been deeply rewarding, and is also something I have come to appreciate as a part of my own musical education and development.​
