Sparked by an early love for post-romantic and 20th century music, particularly the French impressionists and Russian composers, and later by Coltrane's harmony and free jazz, my inspiration has since found its place in jazz.

I've studied with: Kevin Hays, Aaron Goldberg, Kenny Barron, George Cables, Barry Harris, Brian Dickinson, Russ Hoffmann, Ran Blake, Marc Levine, Franco D’Andrea, Enrico Pieranunzi, Stefano Battaglia, Diederik Wissels, Rick Margitza, Dave Liebman.
