Who am I?
I am an American flautist based in Cornwall, England who is an international performer, a flute teacher + an ethnomusicologist.
But ultimately?
- I perform with a big heart for audiences around the globe.
- I teach flautists to be fearlessly creative, technically refined + unapologetically real.
- I research fresh, brand spankin’ new ways to tell a musical story.
Why?
Because art–yours, mine, ours–is changing the world.
And so this is what I do (+ why I absolutely love it).
