My music career and education have thrust me into a variety of musical expressions that I call my "mosaic of sound." I have been influenced by music of the world - the music of the spirit created from a powerful tapestry of rhythms and sensual melodies. Yet I am also influenced by the infusion of modern technology into that sound - I am a mix of world and jazz idioms.
I compose with the idea that all exist in a world of harmonies which mirror life evolving away from the chaotic (to the positive). There's not just a co-existence but a melding of forms to produce a single musical expression.
