Woodwinds | Composer | Tutor
I am excited to announce that I am selling my compositions and arrangements on Noteflight Marketplace, a new platform for buying and selling adaptable scores! You can view my scores from my Seller Profile or my new Store Page on this website.
As the saying goes, time flies when you’re having fun. This school year has been nothing short of remarkable. Some highlights include leading a recital, starting my job as a Core Music Tutor, and continuing to do great work with Women in Jazz Collective. I am really thankful for the people I collaborated with, the mentors who have guided me, and the experiences I had that helped me grow as a musician and person this year. Wishing everyone a joyful summer!
I had an incredible time at my recital last week! The program consisted on two original compositions and four arrangements (my own versions of songs written by someone else). You can listen to the recital on my SoundCloud playlist and check out some photos.
Charlie Parker is one of my favorite saxophonists to transcribe. To me, he balances the use of technical prowess and lyrical melodic conception to the highest degree. His solo on K.C. Blues captivated me because of its incredible soulfulness and flurries of technical mastery. Here is my transcription of his solo.
For more transcriptions, visit my Transcriptions Page.
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy New Year!
Sharing this video from the Tribute to Women in Jazz concert last October. Enjoy!

I have just shared my transcription of “Blues Inn” from the album Jackie’s Bag. Check out my Transcriptions Page for more solos!
I am proud of the work I do as Co-President of Women in Jazz Collective. Last week, we hosted a panel discussion called Gender Equality in Jazz and the Music Industry.
Thank you to the Daily Free Press for publishing an article about the event. I think that dialogue is a great first step toward a more equitable industry.
It was an honor to organize the first Tribute to Women in Jazz Concert on behalf of Women in Jazz Collective! It was a wonderful celebration of the ingenuity of women performers and composers at Berklee.
The full concert can be viewed here. (My band starts around 46:35.)
