story.
To fully and deeply
immerse, experience, and explore,
with awareness, an open heart, and compassion,
the multifaceted, tragic, and beautiful life that we live, is my goal.
To express this understanding honestly and with authenticity is what I do.
I do this with the support of a strong technical foundation,
and a freedom of expression that
knows no boundaries.
"So come to the pond,
or the river of your imagination,
or the harbor of your longing,
and put your lips to the world.
And live
your life."
~Mary Oliver

Consistency –
Consistent practice is the key that unlocks the mysteries, intricacies, nuances, and mastery of our art form.
Consistent practice is the key to strong, skillful, masterful technique.
Consistent practice is the key to all things of life…
