As part of my own artistic endeavors, I am committed to performing and programming works by historically excluded composers. No Broken Links is a directory highlighting solo and chamber music by composers from communities who continue to face marginalization in the field of classical music. Brandon Rumsey and I produce and edit a public-access directory that aims to champion diversity in classical music by forming an ambassadorship with those individuals presented on the directory.

As a performing artist, I have garnered numerous prizes in various national and international competitions, alongside appearing as a soloist at Carnegie Hall. As both a performer and scholar, I have contributed to notable national and international conferences, including the Music Teachers National Association, the Association for Arts Administration Educators, the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project, the North American Saxophone Alliance, and the Sabre Festival in Zürich, Switzerland. Within my work as a guest clinician, I have been invited to teach and provide clinics at various institutions, such as Montclair State University, California School of the Arts, San Francisco Conservatory, Texas A&M International University, and Wagner College, among others. My primary teachers include Stephen Page, Geoffrey Deibel, Zachary Shemon, and Stacy Wilson.
