Employed Since

Educational History

B.M., Boston University; M.M., The Juilliard School

Fields of Expertise

Music composition, 20th- and 21st-century music, and new music performance. Academic interests include a humanities-driven approach to the arts—illuminating how music, visual arts, dance, theater and philosophy consistently intersect with each other and the relative popular and vernacular culture. Professional composition work explores how disparate vernacular music styles and popular culture coincide with the music of the contemporary concert hall.
