October 11th 2015 -- Today was our yearly Alaska Mallet Masters concert. Brady Byers and I performed a Trevino piece entitled "2 + 1 Marimba". Always fun to get together with other marimbists to enjoy music.
Sept 7th 2015 -- I am happy to announce that I have been selected as the next principal timpanist for the Anchorage Symphony Orchestra. I am thrilled that I will soon be playing along side of some of Anchorages finest musicians. Thanks for providing me with this opportunity and I look forward to this year's season!
