Background

I am a 4th year North Texas trumpet player pursuing a jazz studies degree (with emphasis in arranging).

I have experience playing in big bands, small groups, rock bands, funk bands, orchestras, and church bands. I also have written and arranged in almost all styles of music.

I play lead trumpet, section, or solo in any context. I have studied under Jay Saunders, Mike Steinel, and Jimmy Duhon.

I have played in the 4 O Clock, 3 O Clock, 2 O Clock, 1 O Clock, Latin Jazz Ensemble, Jazz Reportoir Ensemble and have backed Conrad Herwig in Houston.

Current gigs in Dallas include:
Rebel Alliance Jazz Ensemble
Down Town Fever
Gainsville Swing Orchestra
The Sweatervescence
Carribean Breeze

Currently I am playing trumpet in the 1 O Clock Lab Band under the direction of Steve Wiest.
