Award-winning songwriter, arranger, grant writer, manager.
I might join your team wearing one of these hats, but don't be surprised when you find they all fit perfectly:
- Acclaimed string arrangements
- High-end, trusted violin/fiddle chops
- $400k+ funding won for clients in 2024 alone
- Clever Americana/Pop songs written to-brief
- Managing a select roster of creatives
