I'm a composer in Tampa, Florida.

I'm a core artist and a director of the Bonk Festival of New Music, an annual celebration of mostly experimental music.

I have a few degrees in music composition and theory from the Eastman School of Music and New York University. For several years, I taught theory and composition courses at the University of South Florida in Tampa, and I also teach privately from time to time.

Here's a list of compositions.

When I am not too busy working for The Florida Orchestra, I still sometimes perform professional-quality editing, proofreading and computer typesetting of music manuscripts (using the Score notation program) for a variety of publishers and private clients at very reasonable rates. I also have experience as a grant writer and grant management consultant, with an emphasis in the arts.

I play in a band called Handshake Squad, featured twice in the Weekly Planet's "Best of the Bay" issue as "best experimental band." We think we play pop music, but perhaps we're just a little warped.
