Students will learn basic principles of composition, understand how to write for a variety of instruments/voices, and create music they are connected to and excited about sharing.

I have a Doctorate of Musical Arts degree from LSU with a doctoral minor in music composition. I studied composition in my undergraduate degree as my minor as well and am currently studying with Dr. Joseph Sowa at the Wizarding School for Composers.

One of my recent compositions, "Runaway Llama Train" for English Horn and Piano, was recently accepted for publishing by TrevCo Music, the world's premier publisher of double reed music. Another composition, "Suite of the Hippopotamus" for cello and tuba, had its European premiere this past January in Budapest, Hungary. I am also actively working on a solo cello piece to be played by Gloria Lum, a cellist in the LA Philharmonic.
