He is an experienced music educator at the middle, high school and college levels. He received his Bachelor’s of Music from Ohio University and his Master’s of Music in Music Composition from UT. There are even more random musical (mis)adventures to be found in his YouTube portfolio! He continues to play keys, pull music out of thin air for the occasional madcap improv show, and sometimes feel seriously compelled to make zany videos.
