Welcome to my website. Beyond a self-promotional tool, it was created as a way of showing and connecting the different music circles that I work in that rarely cross paths. I've been blessed to work in 48 countries all over the world with legendary, Grammy Award winning artists from the jazz world, the pop world, fusion world, Afro-Cuban and Brazilian music worlds and beyond.
