If you’re in the area, come see my spring semester faculty recital on March 18 at 7 pm in Hot Springs, AR! It features a world premiere of a new solo piece for viola!

Mary Oliver bringing truth this morning.

I dunno, sometimes I feel like I’m never gonna become an oligarch 😔

When my dog barks at something outside and I come to look out the window, he gives me a little wag and look that says “I feel heard. I feel validated.” And I like it a lot

No reading, only pats

Enjoying the prep process for this new piece!

Nature has taken my childhood home back. First time I’ve seen it in years

One of my students is knocking every last assignment out of the park so hard, I want to give a Paul Hollywood-style handshake after every submission and presentation! Great way to end the semester!
