All About Jazz


THE STUDIO

The work happens here,
away from the rush.

A table. A piano.
Paper marked, erased,
and marked again.

Time slows enough
to hear what’s actually being asked.

This is a practice of attention.

I’m in the midst of composing new music—
work built slowly,
with sound shaped like space,
and attention treated as a public responsibility.

The focus now is clarity over quantity,
intention over output.

This site is a partial window into that world:
compositions, collaborations, teaching,
and reflections in progress.

It’s not exhaustive.
It’s not promotional.

It’s a record of attention.

Enter quietly.

ENGAGEMENTS

I collaborate with artists, institutions, and communities in settings where music, education, and civic inquiry intersect.


Engagements are selective and context-driven.
