Biography
I am a musician born, raised, and educated in Northern NJ. (BM in Jazz Performance from NJCU)
My vocation began when I played my first gig at 8- a Christmas Eve mass where I played organ and cantered a mass. I’ve worked as a cantor, organist, choir director, and director of music for the Catholic Church for the last twenty two years. I’ve been a teacher in both parochial and public schools for the last ten years. In addition, I have a private studio at my home and have played in musical pits for local high schools and colleges.
