I'm a cellist and bassist living in the Boston Massachusetts area. I play mostly classical music on the cello and mostly jazz on the bass, though I've dabbled in bluegrass, folk, klezmer and other Jewish music.
I have studied cello with Glenn Garlick, Irvin Klinkon and Ben Levinson, and as well as a master class with János Starker. I have been a member of the Boston Philharmonic and the Fairfax Symphony and have played in freelance groups such as the National Gallery Orchestra.
Mostly self-taught on bass, I have taken some lessons from Richard Davis and more recently from Marcus McLaurine at the Vermont Jazz Center, as well as coaching from Harvey Diamond. I play in the jazz quartet About Time. I play a Jensen electric upright bass as well as a conventional acoustic bass.
I also teach both cello and bass.
I am also embarking on a career as a secondary school math teacher after having been a professional software engineer for many years.
