I've played the trumpet since I was a child. I trained at the Tucson Jazz Institute and competed at Jazz at Lincoln Center during high school. Our band won first place, and I received an Outstanding Trumpet Solo award. I have also performed at the Montreux and Monterey Jazz Festivals and the Grammy Awards and have recorded at Capitol Records. I still perform regularly in Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona. Most recently, I played with the 17-piece Century Jazz Orchestra, and I occasionally perform solo. Feel free to reach out if you’d like me to perform at your next event. If I’m unavailable for a given date, I’m happy to refer you to some stellar local musicians.
