I'm a musician and artist living in Tempe, Arizona and available to help you on your music and graphics projects. Feel free to browse my site and call or email.


Teaching

Always wanted to learn to play the piano? It's never too late. Take a few lessons and see if it's for you.

Music Directing

Whether onstage, in the pit, or backstage, I work to ensure every show sounds as good as possible. Recent shows: "Kiss Me, Kate" - Tempe Little Theater, "Annie Warbucks" - Fountain Hills Theater.

Recording

Using a keyboard and a computer, I create simple recordings or professional orchestral tracks. Recent recordings: Grease, Legally Blonde, and Narnia. samples

Performing

Nothing's quite like playing live. Although I've been in several bands and played for dinner theaters, I gravitate back to solo piano for events or just volunteering. I've played corporate parties, hotels, art walks, and retirement homes. samples

Graphics

With my trusty Mac and a handful of programs like Photoshop, iMovie, and MS Office, I create standalone graphics for the web and for print as well as multimedia. I've also worked extensively with Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. If you're needing help designing or creating materials or just need some ideas, just ask and I'll be happy to share my experience. Samples available on request.
