I am a generalist by nature. I grew up working on a small family dairy before attending the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. My professional background is diverse and includes Braille sign design and manufacture, a decade of publishing administration and royalty accounting at a boutique music agency, website management, data analysis, graphic design, public transportation, baking and pastry making (in four states), and graveyard shifts at an urban convenience store.
After hours I am a songwriter and musician. I've played in Bay Area bands 100 Watt Smile, The Mighty Lynch-Pins, The Verms and many others as well as a handful of long-forgotten 90s New England groups. In recent years I've returned to my love of songwriting and in August 2022 I released Fiesta Red, my sixth collection of songs since 2015.
I'm a Linux enthusiast and create all my music on that platform.
