I have been living in the Bay Area since 2000. I perform with local opera companies, chamber orchestras, and festivals, and collaborate with Bay Area composers in premiering new works.
As a member of the Pacific Mozart Ensemble, I have collaborated with music legends Meredith Monk, Dave Brubeck, and Bobby McFerrin, and am a founding member of Opera Frontier, an innovative song and dance troupe that pushes the boundaries and challenges the stereo-types of opera.
