One of the highlights of my career was serving as Horn Section Leader and Horn Arranger on the Grammy Award-winning album 44/876. As a performer, I've played everything from luxury weddings and corporate events to major festivals and high-profile private functions. My favorite venues are always the ones where the music creates a genuine connection and unforgettable memories for the audience.
Weddings and cocktail hours are my favorite events because I get to help create meaningful moments for people on one of the most important days of their lives. I also love corporate events and private parties where I can blend smooth background music with energetic crowd interaction when the moment calls for it.
I've been performing professionally for over a decade. My career has included touring, recording, arranging, and performing with artists across multiple genres. I began gigging locally before expanding into weddings, private events, corporate entertainment, and recording projects. Those experiences eventually led to opportunities including work on a Grammy Award-winning album and performances for audiences around the world.
My biggest influences include Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Kenny G. If I had to choose a favorite artist, it would be Stevie Wonder because of his incredible songwriting and musicianship. As for the greatest song of all time, I'd have to say Isn't She Lovely—it's timeless, joyful, and connects with audiences of every generation.
