My Music

As a sophomore in high school, I began playing solo jazz piano in restaurants, country clubs, golf-club dinner rooms, and private functions, which is harder to do than you would think for those like myself who do not belong to a musician's union. If for some inconceivable reason you are impressed and/or desperate enough to wish to hire me directly over the internet based on this brief exposition of my skills and/or chutzpah, feel free to email me. All inquiries should be made with at least 2 months of advance notice.
