Musician

Performer

My musical life was born when I began studying the Scottish highland bagpipe at age 9. Bagpiping continues to dominate my career as a performer, in which capacity I have performed for countless parties, weddings, funerals, memorials, holidays, banquets, and in competitions at Scottish highland games. I continue to be available for hire as a solo bagpiper or with a band throughout the Central Coast and Los Angeles regions of California. Contact me for more information.

Additionally, I have performed extensively as a saxophonist and have recently taken up the oud and guitar.

Educator

I have worked as a music educator for private students, summer music camps, and public schools. My experience ranges from teaching fundamentals of the bagpipe and saxophone to directing student bands at school musicals. If you are interested in private tutoring on bagpipes, saxophone, or on general musicianship and theory, I welcome hearing from you.
