Welcome! I am currently a lecturer of Jazz History and Music Business at the University of Texas at Arlington.
After acquiring a M.M. in Jazz Studies as the Jazz Bass and Jazz Theory teaching fellow at the University of North Texas , I toured for a year as electric bassist for the now-late jazz trumpet player Maynard Ferguson . I continue to freelance in the DFW area.
My debut album, DECO, is available at CDBaby , Bandmecca , and iTunes ! It features Stockton Helbing , Tom Luer, Ken Edwards, and Noel Johnston.
You can hear more of my work on Maynard's final CD, The One and Only, Stockton's album Lodestar , as well as on an album from Clay Ross called The Random Puller. I am also on Dan Cavanagh 's Jazz Emporium Big Band album called Pulse, and Lily Maase's LM5 album, aftermath .
