About

I’m a violist/violinist in Atlanta, GA.

I have degrees in music performance from Boston University and the University of New Mexico. I’ve also performed extensively in regional orchestras in the southwest, and performed solo works for weddings for my East Point neighbors. I’d love to work with you!
