I was born in 1975 in Wilmington, DE. I received a Masters of Music Degree in Composition at the Peabody Conservatory. My main teachers included Nicholas Maw and Chris Theofanidis. Additional studies with Bruno Amato, and Thomas Benjamin at Peabody, Dan Coleman in NYC, and George Tsontakis at the Aspen Music School. I was awarded 2nd prize in the Virginia Carty deLillo Composition Competition. My music has been performed in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, NYC's Christ and St.Stephen's Church; Esglesia de Santa Cristina d'Aro, in Girona, Spain; Pennsylvania; The Joslyn Art Museum, Omaha, Nebraska; Nagoya, Osaka, Sapporo, Japan, Aspen, Colorado,and Germany. MyOctober Dream for guitar quartet is published by homadream in Tokyo. Recently, Cord Aria a German based guitar and flute duo have put out a recording which includes my piece Winter Light. This is a piece I wrote in the hospital while my son was born. It was originally written for Yoshio Nomura and Chie Morimoto.
