I teach in US higher education (in a STEM field) & am a hobbyist composer writing in a few different styles. I recommend headphones. All of my music is released under a Creative Commons Attribution/Noncommercial license.

My bandcamp page is getting out of date again, but some older albums there can be downloaded for free or for a name-your-own price donation.

If anyone wants to try performing any of this stuff on real instruments please send a message and I can provide scores. Not sure how playable some of it is for human musicians though.

Unsolicited messages asking me to listen to your latest song will lead to you being blocked unless if I know you well and we've interacted a lot.

My music is written without the use of AI.

Hope you enjoy and thanks for visiting!

My work is my autobiography.  My work plays and questions abstraction and permanence.  The pieces reflect my education in Bauhaus architecture, my explorations of line and content, and my reaction to life in locations discovered through my continued quest for knowledge.

Studying architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, created the basis for the paintings and drawings.  Architecture and structure form the logic behind the way a painting is built and a drawing is constructed.  How do the tools used affect the making of a line or series of lines?  Each work is an answer to a question exploring how marks and gestures can be created to form a complete composition.

Understanding my place in foreign cultures plays a huge part in the development and choices made for the work created there.  Finding the balance of act and consequence within the parameters of an unknown land add the next facet of information and visual expansion.

Abstraction is not a style, but a state of mind…a balance of subtlety and boldness, confidence and risk, the known and that what needs to be found.
