“The most pizzazz of any recent show at the Marriott, partly
due to the singular orchestrations…”
– The Chicago Tribune
on Damn Yankees (2023)

Recent Projects
GRETEL! (publishing a new musical)
It’s hard work preparing anything for publication, and the music of GRETEL! requires actor-musicians, careful timing of dialogue, and a cello part chock-full of extended techniques!
Winnie the Pooh @ Imagine U
As a music director, arranger, and a singing, dancing bumblebee, I put an entirely new, folky twist on Allan Friedman and Kristin Sergel’s classic Winnie the Pooh score.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with many incredible artists. Mind if I drop some names?
