Guitarist and composer
Vutera single and trip to NOLA
2026 came to a great start with recordings for Vutera's new single, TA AH, as well as a trip to the JEN Conference in New Orleans, representing the CalArts Jazz Program.
Here I am playing some nylon guitar for Vutera's lovely song TA AH.

Balinese gamelan memories
I've had a great time playing Gamelan around LA with Pak Wenten's group Burat Wangi. It has been such an honor to learn and share this music.
I'm in LA!
After 3.5 years in Boston I moved to Los Angeles. I am excited to explore the city and music. While here, I will be pursuing a Master's in Jazz at California Institute of the Arts.
