​If you want to know my normal gig schedule check facebook but I thought it was worth posting this here. 
I was invited by Matt Hughes to join his "Jazz at the Pub" Series as the guest artist for the night. He asked me to bring a bunch of my originals and we rehearsed them with the band and made a night of originals at the Pub.
Here's "Help Me Please," one of my original songs from the night of entertainment. Performed by Whitney Ashe on Keys, Matt Hughes on Bass, George Turner on Guitar and myself on Vocals. 


I wrote a play for the 19th Annual Bring Your Own Play (BYOP) Ten Minute Play Festival at Western Illinois University. My play, Light, is set in an art Museum (right).

I also directed Molly Montgomery's play, The Clarinet-Trumpet Attraction Hypothesis (below). 
Here are a few favorites from a few of my favorite local spots with my favorite talented Macomb locals. On the left is Bill Maakestad and on the right is Whitney Ashe, Matt Hughes, George Turner and some lovely students. Enjoy!
I will be music directing First Date in Fall of 2022 and Directing the Underground Cabaret in February 2023. ​http://www.wiu.edu/cofac/theatre/



I will be at the Clinton Area Showboat Theatre again this summer for four shows:
Karin in Calendar Girls, Melissa Frake in State Fair, Aunt Angie and assistant directing The Wedding Singer, and the Karen Mason Track in And The World Goes Round.  
I'll be singing several songs on Whitney Ashe's Faculty Recital at Western Illinois University, November 4th, 2021 at 7pm.​
