Bio:


I've been performing, composing and teaching music for many years. I enjoy arranging traditional and classic pieces, and also enjoy composing original music. I'll write for whomever will perform my music, so I've written for children's choirs, concert band, folk groups, sax quartets, church choirs and on and on. I studied music education rather than composition in college for practical reasons, but I still enjoy the creative process of getting ideas on paper and then hearing them performed.
