After eight years of living in Europe,the creative gravitational force of NYC finally drew me in. Since 2003, I have been thriving on this energy, exploring and collaborating with exceptional musicians and artists here, while developing and sharing my personal sound with the world.
I offer private saxophone lessons in my music studio on Dean Street in Brooklyn and can also travel to your location. Please contact me for rates and availability.
