Available to hire
I am a professional musician and educator based in Rhode Island with a passion for teaching and performing across piano, voice, trumpet, and theory. I have taught in private studios, schools, and ensembles, performing early music and classical repertoire as a tenor soloist, accompanist, and ensemble member.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Music History and Literature from Rhode Island College (magna cum laude) and a Certificate of Graduate Study in Nonprofit Leadership. My work centers on inspiring students with curiosity, discipline, and artistry while continually adapting to new technologies and platforms to enhance in-person and online learning.
