I came to playing music fairly late compared to most people. I began playing electric bass and guitar at the age of 14. I quickly became interested in classical and jazz and have pursued interests in both ever since. I have been at EKU for three years now as a music education major on the double bass. I am a member of the symphony orchestra, string orchestra, and bass quartet. I also help out with percussion ensembles on a regular basis. I study with Dr. Mark Chambers. Some of my favorite bassists and composers include -
Jaco Pastorius | John Patitucci | Oscar Pettiford | Paul chambers | Tom Kennedy | Bottesinni | Stravinsky | Shostakovich | Piazzolla | Andres Segovia | Chet Atkins
