About Me

I am a musician and educator, I moved to New York City about three years ago from Detroit. Since then I have finished my Masters degree at The Aaron Copland School of Music @ Queens College. For the past couple of years I have been working as a teaching artist in the NYC public schools while establishing myself on the NYC scene. I started my undergrad studies at The Berklee College of Music in Boston and finished at Wayne State University in Detroit. I have studied and worked with Marcus Belgrave, Louis Smith, Walter White, Lin Biviano, Herbie Williams, Michael Phillip Mossman, Matt Michaels, and Antonio Hart. I am a member of The Motor City Horns (www.motorcityhorns.com), and I was a founding member of the Scott Gwinell Jazz Orchestra. Thanks for stopping by. Jimmy SmithMySpace Layouts
