Welcome to my music. I’m a composer and pianist creating life-inspired healing compositions, musical narratives that reflect the gamut of human emotions through deeply personal stories and transformative life experiences brought to life through the piano’s vibrancy.
I see myself as an actor re-creating these moments in an intensely personal and intimate way tapping into the magical wonder of music to heal and rejuvenate.
I feel that my music is universal – it speaks to people of all ages. Music is the most direct way of accessing the human spirit. Let us explore its infinite wonders together.
