Traditional Musician
Educator
Writer
I perform and teach traditional music, exploring the histories and cultures behind the instruments that I play. My work has taken me from classrooms and concert stages to communities across the Americas, the Caribbean, Europe, Asia, and Africa.
THE BANJO JOURNEY
For three years, I traveled from the United States through the Caribbean and into West Africa, following the banjo’s history.
The journey became a live presentation combining music, history, photographs, and stories from the road.
