California-born and recently relocated back to the west coast in beautiful Portland, OR, I'm currently working in research at an executive recruiting firm and taking time to pursue another passion: software engineering. As I continue to build and hone my developer and coding skills, and after 20 years in Brooklyn, NY, I'm excited to embark on this next chapter in my life and my career. I spent almost two decades as a music educator while working professionally as a pianist, composer, and theatermaker, and I'm eager to continue finding places where all my passions and talents intersect.
