NEWS

• Most of my 2026-27 performance dates are on my calendar - see you at the concert hall!
• I've made the difficult decision to resign my post with the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra. It's been a pleasure serving as Principal Bassist there for nearly a decade, and I wish them all the best!
• Due to an especially busy concert season I will not be accepting new students at this time; check back in future years, though, and always feel free to reach out if you have questions. I love hearing from bassists from all walks of life!
• I've recently successfully auditioned into a higher-tier contract with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. I've so enjoyed playing with the group for the last two years, and really look forward to continuing on a much busier schedule!​
