About Me

I grew up in beautiful Zakynthos island, Greece. Athens was the next step. There I had the chance to study and play with some of the finest Greek jazz musicians. For 2 and a half years (2005-2007), I attended Conservatorium van Amsterdam (BA). I got involved in the local jazz scene and toured in the country and abroad. Last February I moved to NYC, in order to look for new musical experiences and also obtain a MA in the Aaron Copland School of Music.Thanks for visiting.
