Why?

  • It began with a clear vision: to become a professional trumpet performer while building meaningful connections within the music community. I set out to develop versatility across classical, jazz, and contemporary styles—striving to bridge these traditions seamlessly within the modern music industry.

  • I recognized that experiences such as drum corps, musician clinics, and other performance opportunities would strengthen my ability to collaborate and grow as an artist. I actively collaborate with my professors and peers to expand my knowledge, develop new work, and promote musical initiatives, all while integrating insights from contemporary industry practices.

  • I am dedicated to promoting, supporting, and performing with musicians across the modern industry, ensuring that both they and I are positioned for meaningful artistic experiences and long-term success.
