I am a collaborative pianist and vocal coach currently based in Houston, Texas and relocating to New York City in Fall 2026 to join The Juilliard School's Marcus Institute for Vocal Arts as a Piano Fellow. As a Doctor of Musical Arts candidate in Collaborative Piano with a minor in Voice Pedagogy, I bring extensive experience working with singers, instrumentalists, choirs, and ensembles in recitals, concerts, lessons, masterclasses, auditions, sacred music settings, and educational environments.

​

Collaboration lies at the core of my artistic identity. Beyond providing piano accompaniment, I strive to be an engaged musical partner, drawing upon my experience as both a pianist and tenor to support repertoire preparation, musical interpretation, stylistic understanding, and performance development. Working with musicians of diverse backgrounds and aspirations continues to be one of the most rewarding aspects of my career, fostering meaningful artistic partnerships built on communication, flexibility, and shared musical goals.
