Roadwarrior

I received a Bachelor of Music Education from Mt. Union College and pursued studies in New York at the Julliard School of Music as a mallet/ percussion major and piano minor. Composition and jazz studies became my first and primary interest. Bottom line is, music should tell a story and when I compose I always pick a mood or a setting and then begin the writing. I feel the composers who have influenced me tell great stories.
