Encore Music Director 

As a multi-talented pianist, performer, composer, and orchestrator, I've cultivated a dynamic career filled with remarkable achievements. From captivating audiences coast to coast to successfully producing original musicals, my passion for music propels me forward. Sharing the stage with A-list celebrities has enriched my artistry and creativity, and with unwavering dedication, I continuously push the boundaries of musical expression, seeking opportunities to contribute my talents to the world of music and performance. In my recent endeavors, I collaborated closely with accomplished composer and lyricist Mark Sonnenblick, known for his work on Netflix's "Theatre Camp," "Lyle Lyle Crocodile," and Apple TV's "Spirited." I expertly handled music copyist duties, ensuring flawless score preparation and seamless communication with the creative team. Prior to that, I had the privilege of working alongside Rodrigo Amarante, renowned Brazilian singer/songwriter of "Tuyo" fame, at the Disney Concert Hall in downtown LA. I meticulously orchestrated the concert, aligning with Rodrigo's artistic vision and delivering exceptional arrangements. I also took full responsibility for all copyist work, contributing to flawless performances. Additionally, I also performed in the show as Key 1/Marimba/Harpsichord/Backup Vocalist. Just a few months ago, I orchestrated "Audrey," the Audrey Hepburn musical, for its regional premiere following an off-Broadway run. My orchestrations and demos were pivotal in executing the artistic vision, thanks to frequent communication with the creative and production team. Back in 2021, I served as a music production assistant for the upcoming Broadway filming of Jersey Boys, starting Nick Jonas. My responsibilities included making necessary changes to band parts, transcribing sheet music from in-studio sessions, and facilitating the distribution of sheet music and audio files to cast and band members. In my musical and performance journey, I've consistently strived for excellence, worked alongside accomplished professionals, and remained dedicated to enriching the world of music.
