“The only thing better than singing is more singing.”
—Ella Fitzgerald

Welcome!

My musical interests are varied—from vocal jazz to classical flute and dance—and I enjoy performing and learning as much as possible along the way.

Download my bio.

All That Jazz

I want to thank my vocal jazz teacher Greta Matassa and my first jazz band/vocal ensemble conductor at Eckstein Middle School, Moc Escobedo, for helping me express myself creatively and make my own music.

Classical Flute

I'm indebted to my flute teacher Bonnie Blanchard, who teaches me about musical theory, musicality and playing what the composer intended. In performance, I develop those skills with collaborative pianist Li-Tan Hsu.

Got a gig?

There's not much point in learning the performing arts unless I get the opportunity to perform! If musical entertainment could liven up your next dinner party or other event in the Seattle area, please get in touch!

The maturity of your vocal sound and jazz concept are startling!

Displays a jazz sensibility … Good solo construction [and] clarity of intonation … a very impressive submission.

I'm hearing some "spit" flute! Yeah!
Excellent ideas that are right in the style.
