Why

Music, and art in general, possesses an inherent ability to redeem and uplift. When experienced in the right environment, and with the right intention, it can ignite a process that transforms lives. This transformative power can guide individuals, and consequently society, towards the highest states of cohesion, mutual understanding, and an appreciation of the diveristy of human experience.

I believe music has the potential to encapsulate the entirety of the cosmos; that which is both subjectively and objectively perceptible. It contains everything while maintaining its unique identity—simultaneously discrete and all-encompassing.

Stemming from these beliefs, I remain engaged in all things musical; this includes performing, thinking, writing, researching, composing, teaching, listening, curating and speaking about music. Music is the driving force behind all of my interactions with the world around me.
