I have always been a generalist. Back high school I was playing in marching band, orchestra, jazz band, in the “pit” for stage productions and also rock bands that at fraternity parties. In college I started getting into all sorts of Latin music including Peruvian folkloric, Mexican mariachi, Brazilian, and Afro-Caribbean. My taste in music is very eclectic. That’s one of the things I love about arranger keyboards- we can cover so many styles of music!

Although at times I do pause and think if I had just focused on one style and instrument I’d probably be pretty good – not a jack of all trades master of none. But I wouldn’t change anything. It’s been a wonderful ride.
