About
I'm a guitarist and teacher. I also think aquariums and nature are pretty neat. I'm currently living in Indianapolis, and my teachers have included my dad, then Andrew Zohn, followed by David Starobin and Jason Vieaux at the Curtis Institute of Music (B.M.), and Judicaël Perroy at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music (M.M.).
I've had some success in international competitions like the GFA and The Parkening, along with many other regional competitions, and have performed internationally. In 2019, I released an album of original arrangements of Isaac Albéniz's Op. 165 and Op. 47.
At the moment, I'm taking a break from giving concerts to reconnect with music in a way I haven't fully committed to before. Lately I've been experimenting with ways to use the classical guitar in new contexts — writing music in non-traditional ways, layering guitars, blending instruments, and using production tools to create whatever tickles my brain. I've also been learning electric guitar, mainly in a high-gain metal context.
