Summary

High energy and hardworking trumpet player with a proven record of high quality performance as both a section leader and soloist in a wide range of ensembles at UNT and in the greater North Texas community. Known for a positive personality, dependable leadership, and a disciplined approach to growth.

With my passion for trumpet beginning at 10 years old, I have developed the bulk of my technical and musical foundation through consistent, focused effort over more than a decade of study under several prestigious section and principal players; an experience that shaped my work ethic and deepened my resolve as a musician. I bring the same determination, curiosity, and forward momentum to every new challenge, and I am committed to using graduate study to refine the remaining skills necessary to achieve my goal of becoming an orchestral player.
