Employed Since:
2012Educational History:
Performance Diploma, Oberlin Conservatory of Music
Fields of Expertise:
Oboe/English Horn
Personal Highlights:
When not engaged in music, I try to maintain a healthy lifestyle through good diet and frequent exercise. Specifically, I enjoy practicing Ashtanga Yoga and recommend every musician pick up a yoga practice that works for them. I also enjoy interior design, architecture, cooking, gardening, and travel. Though a favorite past-time of mine will always be riding roller coasters.

Preparing young oboists for music careers of the future is tough yet rewarding work. At Shenandoah Conservatory, the students are motivated to meet those challenges. They always impress me with their ability to embrace tradition and seek innovation.
