Cello
About
Originally from outside of Chicago, I went to study cello at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY before moving out to LA for my Master's degree. I am currently in my second year at USC studying with Andrew Shulman. I love all kinds of music and perform solo, with piano, and in various chamber ensembles, most notably with Quartet Aido.

"Fabulous evening. Loved everything about it. Stellar musicians. They chose excellent music to play, showcasing not only their individual but also their collective talents. I appreciated the context for the composer's motive and intent."

Music
Mainly classical, currently broadening to collaborate with jazz, pop, and rock musicians. I love bluegrass and folk music, if the music has strings, I'm in!
