I'm a composer and multi-instrumentalist in Oakland CA

who writes about small tactile details and immense experiences.

​

I write songs under the name Sucker Crush,

and play cello and sing in the band Fieldress.

​

I compose electroacoustic and contemporary chamber music

as a way of listening deeply,

and inviting others to do the same.

​

I've been facilitating a songwriting community / accountability group called Music Every Week

for the past two years, which has grown into a flourishing resource for fellow soundmakers.

​

I hold an MFA in Experimental Music & Recording Media from Mills College

and a BM in Music Composition from Columbia College Chicago.
