I'm a flute player, an improviser/composer and I'm mostly making and performing my music in the jazz and experimental music realms throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe.  My most active groups are Black Earth Ensemble and Black Earth SWAY.  I also do some composing for new music (classical) settings and make soundtracks.  And I really enjoy playing with my friends including Moor Mother, Tiger Trio, Indigo Trio, Rob Mazurek's Exploding Star Orchestra, David Boykin Expanse, Michael Dessen, Mark Dresser and others.

I make what I feel and feel what I make... That is all!

I'm a composer and instrumentalist based in New Haven, CT. I ran the Uncertainty Music Series from 2007-2017.

Locally accepted, domestically respected, and internationally connected.
