Mission:

I would like to look back on my life and feel that I have made a lasting and positive impact on others through my teaching and performance.  I have made a commitment to a life of endless learning and enrichment, and I hope to be an example for a new generation of classical music performers to feel and understand classical music as I do and then to foster it, cultivate it and keep it ever present in our world of music.  This website is intended to collect and promote the uncollected and predominantly unpublished works dedicated to the AIDS Quilt Songbook, to promote the performance and composition of new art song and opera, and to promote my personal performance career endeavors. 

                          Thank You For Taking The Time To View This Site.
